Parenthood has sucked the life out of him. He should moisturise and drink more water.

Mygod, you're right. And you should see what's happened to Ricky Gervais!

Well he is not a young man is he? It is probably nature rather than parenthood which is in fact making him look older.

Yes he does look a lot older recently. Didn't know he was a dad. When did that happen?

I think he looks old because he's old.

What's wrong with looking older? It's a natural thing to happen

I think it's coincided with him actually getting properly old. Same with Clooney (except the dad thing, obvs)

willyoulisten I think between 1 and 2 years ago, a girlfriend of his for a few months found she was pregnant after they'd broken up. She lives in London and she and HG are on good terms but not a couple. Their daughter has a Chinese name I can't remember, I'm afraid (mother is of Chinese origin) but I think is also known as Matilda.

It was the boy what did it. My DH looked like he'd sipped from the eternal fountain of youth until DS came along. Now he looks like dried up prune.

OK, sorry it's the Daily Fail but here is the report of the new baby. Elder child is Tabitha not Matilda.

Yet Colin Firth has 3 sons and looks fit. But you can tell he moisturises.

Wikipedia says that he has a daughter called Tabitha, Chinese name Xiao Xi, and a son called Felix Chang.

My dh is about the same age as HG. ds2 told him the new Pope looked younger than him. He was a bit grouchy about it. He has raised 5 kids though.

Nothing wrong with looking old, or just your age. But I doubt he's been at the coal face of childcare (if I'm wrong, good for him, but it's part of life).

He does seem to have aged rather a lot! He is far too old for me really but up till recently i wouldntn have said no Blush
