British actor Hugh Grant says he didn't want to have kids a decade ago but now, at age 49, he hopes to be a father.

"I have so many nephews and nieces and cousins and godchildren, I like the thought (of kids), but that's on the basis that I can leave after 10 minutes. I don't know what it would be like 24 hours a day. I think I'd have a lot of nannies," imdb.com quoted Grant as saying.

"But I haven't given up hope... I find I'm not as bad with children as I used to be," he added.
