Paul has one daughter – Sharon, who is married and has two children of her own.
Previously, Paul opened up about his grandson Abel.
He told the Liverpool Echo: “He’s gorgeous. He’s 14 months – he’s crawling and stuff.
“He’s just a lovely little kid. He got very clingy to me, while he was here.
“It’s nice, as soon as I’d walk in the kitchen, he’d put his arms up. My daughter would say ‘Oh, here we go. I can see trouble here!'”
