I haven’t found age relevant to my relationship with my son or grandsons. Is being a grandad different to being a dad? Not really. In the end, it’s all love, isn’t it?
The veteran journalist and broadcaster, 75, says having his most recent child Tafara “wasn’t easy” but that following the birth “life felt complete”.
“There are three very small people in my life – two grandsons, aged one and three, and a son, Tafara, who is two-going-on-five,” he said.
“He’s got his mum’s brain and my extrovert nature. I love how you can already have great conversations with him.
“Having him wasn’t easy but we persisted because, at 48, my wife is a good deal younger than me and she very much wanted and deserved a baby. When he was born, life felt complete.”

Snow said he is “much more relaxed and present as a parent” compared with his own father George, who was an Anglican clergyman.
“He was the Bishop of Whitby – 6ft 7in tall and even taller in full regalia,” he added.
“I’m 6ft 4in now, but only 4ft 6in as an eight or nine-year-old child, when it really mattered.
