London, Jan 24 (IANS) Music mogul Simon Cowell, who got engaged to make-up artist Mezhgan Hussainy last year, loves children but says he is getting too old to have them.

‘I worry about it because of my age. When I was a youngster, my dad used to play soccer and games with me. And I worry that if I was 70….’

‘Also, if children could be born at the age of five I’d quite like that. I like them at that age when they can talk and understand. I’m not sure I could deal with the whole ‘ga ga goo’ thing. But I genuinely like kids,’ femalefirst.co.uk quoted the 51-year-old as saying.
