Gerard Butler: I Definitely Want Kids

Is Scottish star Gerard Butler ready to trade in bachelorhood for family life?

The still-single actor will be turning 40 next week and admits the milestone sometimes has him thinking about settling down.

"Right now, yes, I question a bunch of things in my life and I am in a lot of ways more comfortable than ever..." he tells Scotland's The Daily Record. "Sometimes I think, 'God, I wish I was married now, had kids'. Other times I think, 'Thank Christ I am not married and don't have kids yet. I can do that later.' But I can totally imagine it. It's just not right now. I am great where I am at but it would be nice. It doesn't have to be marriage. It could be to be in a relationship and I would definitely like kids some day."

The 300 star says he'll be celebrating his 40th back home in Scotland with family, joking, "I am going up to Glasgow where I am having a shared birthday party with my 11-year-old niece, which I am a little bothered about because I deserve all the attention but she is getting some of it."
