Congratulations are in order for Mötley Crüe’s Nikki Sixx and wife, Courtney, who are expecting their first child together!

Courtney Sixx confirmed the news to Us Weekly saying, “We are over the moon excited to be having a baby! Nikki is going to be the most amazing dad in the world because he already is.”

At age 60, Nikki Sixx will become a father for the fifth time, but he certainly isn’t the first musician ever to have a child late in life.  Just check out the gallery below to see which musicians welcomed children after 60.
