That’s because Bradders has cheekily suggested he might spoil the young lad!

He previously joked about treating the little one: “I’m going to be a brilliant grandfather because I’ve got this trick.

I’m going to be a brilliant grandfather.

“When the baby grows into a toddler, make sure you spend plenty of time with them. Feeding them ice cream and Coca-Cola.

“And then give them back at just the right time and say to your children: ‘There you are, that’s what you were like.'”
