On his reasons to stay away from the birth, he told host Lorraine Kelly: "First of all, she's the one actually having the baby so her rules go as far as I'm concerned. And secondly, I think it's our decision, not anybody else's.
"[We] got a lot of nasty mail and things which was really sad. [But we] also got a lot of mail from men saying, 'I didn't really want to be there but I didn't want to let my wife down'.

He added: "So I think there's a lot of people out there not having this conversation, because it's what everybody expects to happen now. And bear in mind, I will just be outside the door.
"It's not like I'm not in the hospital or out playing golf somewhere. And if she changes her mind halfway through, then she changes her mind."
