The 61-year-old is not opposed to the practice either, and have even been on hand to defend his wife from internet trolls preying on her. He set the records straight on TMZ saying:

"They make it like the baby only breastfeeds. Every once in a while, you know what I'm saying, she wants to get close to her mom, that's what they do. She eats food!"

The father of three believes it's okay to indulge a child occasionally, and he would know, as this is his third trial at parenting.
