Robin Gibb's Son Has Declared The Birth Of His Second Child This Month (Jun15) Has Been Tinged With Sadness Because The Bee Gees Star Is Not Alive To Meet His Grandkids.
Gibb passed away in 2012, aged 62, after a battle with cancer, and he missed his son Robin-John, known as RJ, welcome his first child, a little boy named Maxwell, the following year (13).
RJ and his partner Megan are now celebrating the birth of their second son, Theodore-Alexander, who was born on 7 June (15), but the arrival has also brought sadness over the loss of Gibb.
RJ says, "I know that my father would have been a wonderful grandparent because he was such a loving, attentive and inspirational father. We miss him terribly and it is sad to know that had he lived just a little longer, he would have met his two grandsons: Maxwell and Theodore. Although they will never meet him, it is great that they will always hear his voice."
Gibb's widow Dwina adds, "Even though it is a joyful occasion, it is sad that Robin is not here with me to share in the happiness of seeing our grandchildren flourish and grow. I am glad they will have the music."
