Kelsey Grammer has welcomed his eighth child to the family aged 70 after his wife Kayte Walsh gave birth to their son Christopher.

It's the couple's fourth child together, having previously welcomed Faith, 13, Kelsey Gabriel, 11, and eight-year-old Auden James after they tied the knot in 2011.

The Frasier star has been married three previous times, with his eldest being Rick and Morty star Spencer, 42, who he had with his first wife Doreen Alderman.

He then had daughter Greer, 33, with girlfriend Barrie Buckner. With his third wife Camille, he has 24-year-old daughter Mason and son Jude, 21.

Christmas must be a busy time around his house, and now, it's going to get even busier, as the 70-year-old Simpsons star appeared on the Pod Meets World podcast yesterday (27 October) to discuss the latest addition to the family.

The actor had been talking about his book Karen: A Brother Remembers, a memoir written in honour of his late sister who had been murdered by a serial killer in 1975, when he revealed that he and his fourth wife 'just had our fourth one, so it just became eight kids'.

He said: "It was like three days ago, Christopher that's just joined the family."

Grammer and Walsh had been spotted in London in June with Kayte having a baby bump, appearing to confirm the news that the couple's fourth child and Grammer's eighth was on the way.

Speaking to PEOPLE earlier this year, the man behind the voice of Sideshow Bob said that in addition to being a dad to his younger children with Walsh, he had been 'playing catch up with some of the older ones'.

"I have neglected a couple of the kids in my life, especially the first two," Grammer said.

"I'm trying to make up for a little of it now. I'm still their dad, so you can always have [a] chance to show up."

Despite him saying he had 'neglected' a couple of his older kids, they've had nice things to say about him.

Spencer said that her dad had 'been great about me being an actress', saying that he 'always tells me to follow my heart and to do things for the right reasons'.

In 2019, when she shared a picture of her dad with her son Emmett, she captioned it: "My Dad and my son doing a 2000-piece puzzle. My Father and I have always done puzzles on vacation. The more pieces the better. The more people the better. Just one piece at a time. Love you dad!"

Meanwhile, Greer, whose first name is Kandace but she goes by her middle name, said in a father's day tribute that she was 'forever proud to be your daughter' and told him 'I love sharing the same initials (and genes) as you'.
