Eddie has said many times that his children are the greatest source of joy in his life. But he admits that having such a large family was never something he planned.
“It just happened,” he said in a new interview with People. “I never knew I would have 10 kids, but now it’s the best thing ever. If you can afford that many kids, you should have as many kids as you can afford. That is fun.” But most important, he points out, “my children are all decent people. I don’t have one rotten one, and I would like to think that they got some of that from me.”

He went on to say, “I love having my family around, and I love that I’ve been in this amazing business for so long. Coming from super humble beginnings and having this longevity, just to be around and see all the different changes and all that stuff. There’s just so much to be happy about.”
