Eric Clapton is a father at age 59


Apparently hands are about the only slow thing on Eric Clapton.

The aging guitar god, whose rock peers are busy becoming grandfathers, is a father again at the age of 59. His wife, Melia McEnery, 29, gave birth to a daughter Tuesday in London.

Clapton's camp has not revealed the name or birth details of the newborn, but Britain's Sun quotes a source close to the singer saying, "Baby and mother are doing well. Eric was there for the delivery."

It's Clapton third child with McEnery and fifth overall. The couple, who married in a secret ceremony in 2002 after dating on and off for three years, also have two other daughters, 3-year-old Julie Rose and 2-year-old Ella Mae.
