English singer Robbie Williams' new wife, Ayda Field, has told him he needs to 'stop being a kid' before they start a family.

The 'Shame' singer, who married the actress in Los Angeles last month, joked that while he is ready to start a family, his spouse has urged him to cut down on playing his favourite video games and learn to be more responsible, reports gossipblender.com.

'Ayda is really keen on the idea of children. I think she would be a wonderful mother, but she has told me not to even think about it before I stop being a kid myself. I need to spend less time on the playstation but Ayda thinks I'll be a good dad,' he said.
