The vampire movie hunk, whose full name is Monroe Jackson Rathbone V, married Sheila in the Kardashian enclave Calabasas in September 2013.

A little over a year before, they welcomed Monroe Jackson VI, whose godmother is his father's old Twilight co-star Nikki Reed.

Nikki and Jasper had respectively played Rosalie and Jasper Hale, the adoptive vampire siblings of leading man Robert Pattinson's Edward Cullen.

Sheila gave birth in May 2016 to her daughter Presley Bowie, whose name Jackson explained to People a couple of months after the birth.

'Presley is just a name I’ve always loved. It’s kind of rockabilly, a little bit of my Southern roots and heritage. And Bowie is a family name from my mother’s side.' 

Jackson, whose great-grandfather was head of Standard Oil Of New Jersey, added: 'And I’m also a fan of David Bowie, so it’s a tribute.' 

He himself dropped an album last year called American Spirit Blues and has shared how his children encouraged him to change the way he sang.

'Whenever I would do songs before, I would hide behind a gruffer voice or a little more rock and roll - shout-sing,' said the Singapore-born crooner.

'But now, whenever I work on my music and I do something like that, my kids think it’s funny. So they’ll hear me do like a voice and they’re like: "Why do you sound like the Cookie Monster this song?"'

Jackson gamely dished: 'So they inspired me to be a little bit more open and to also sing a little softer, like the way I sing to them.'
