'I don't think I could handle 25, but we can dream': Joss Stone dreams of having 25 children

Joss Stone would have “25 kids” if she could.

The 'Super Duper Love' hitmaker recently secretly tied the knot with longtime partner Cody DaLuz – with whom she has daughter Violet, 21 months, and 13-month-old son Shackleton – and she has confessed she would love to have an enormous family.

She told Closer UK: “I'd like 25 children. I don't think I could handle 25, but we can dream.

“I love kids, and so does Cody, and that's why we are perfect for each other.”

The 36-year-old singer currently resides in Tennessee, but she wants her kids to get their education back home.

She explained: “I want my kids to go to school in the UK with their cousins – my family is here. Devon is safe and nice – well I hope anyway. It's so gorgeous to live like that as a little one.”

Joss was born in Kent but grew up in the Devon countryside.

The pair decided in the spur of the moment to get married and her dad had to give her away via video call on Zoom.

She recently told The Sun on Sunday's Bizarre column: “I didn’t want the stress of a big wedding. I just thought it would be more fun and more personal to just do it on our own.

“I called my dad, who lives in Dubai, on Monday, and told him I was getting married that week and did he want to connect via Zoom and give me away?

“He got all dressed up and was on a phone stand during the ceremony to give me away. He was there with his champagne to make a toast.

“We weren’t telling anyone so it was just supposed to be him.”

The 'Right to be Wrong' songstress went on to add that she and her new spouse ended up having a party with several strangers in Dubai and that her dad kept her secret until she felt ready to announce it.

She continued: “But we got married and then I saw he had invited loads of people around and he was having a party to celebrate in Dubai with loads of people I’ve never met.

“It was really funny.

“He said our secret was safe though.”
