Dustin Lance Black revealed he wants 12 kids so he can complete a whole football team.

Speaking to Heat Radio this morning, Dustin and husband Tom Daley were talking about the recent addition to their family, Robert – born 27 June this year.

When asked if they’re thinking about more kids, Dustin joked: ‘I’m already on baby number 12!

He added: ‘Baby two is already raised and in college in my mind.’

Tom then chimed in: ‘He wants a football team – with a reserve.’

Dustin added: ‘Or a family band! Like the Brady Bunch.’

But Tom’s not so sure about the whole thing.

He added: ‘Before you become parents, you do think about the future and how many you’d want to have. But now we have a nine-week-old baby, it’s like, let’s see how it goes with Robbie.’

Daddy Dustin

In a recent Q&A, the pair revealed Dustin is ‘dad’ and Tom is ‘papa’.

Dustin joked: ‘I feel like half the internet’s been calling me daddy for quite a long time!’

Dustin then said little Robbie’s ‘got the life’: ‘He eats, he sleeps, he poops – then repeats.’

Tom said the best part of being a parent is when he looks at you and it feels like he’s ‘looking into your soul’.

Dustin also recently revealed he’s a stay-at-home dad while Tom trains for his diving career.

Dustin said: ‘Tom’s got a really clear deadline coming up which is Tokyo, so there are ways in which we’ve devised our schedules to make sure he stays healthy – physically – as possible. Whereas my career is very much about being mentally sharp.’

He then added: ‘And by the way I’m a film maker – we usually don’t get good at what we do until we’re in our fifties or sixties, like I’ve got some time, you know what I mean? He’s an athlete!

‘And how lucky am I? I get to be the stay at home dad and my career allows that.’
