The 'Candy' hitmaker and wife Ayda Field became parents for the first time on Tuesday to Rose and the 38-year-old star hopes he can raise the little girl to be kind and courteous to others, reported Femalefirst.
"All I want her to have is manners, (To say) 'Yes please' and 'thank you', and to be kind. Those are the things I want her to be and if she's those things then she can get away with murder for me," he said.
The Take That star has also said he thinks Rose will develop a quirky personality because of the influence of her parents and he would not be surprised if she follows in their footsteps.
"I can't help thinking ... Her mum's a comedian and actress and her dad is me. I just want a really quirky, kind kid. As long as she's kind and has got good manners then we're cool."
