Farrell showing father feelings

Colin Farrell has been getting paternal of late, with a moving request to ex-love Kim Bordenave to allow him to have joint custody of their son.

He says he has even cut down on his rollicking lifestyle so that he can be an even better dad.

Farrell says he is willing to do anything to be able to play a serious role in the lad's life.

Farrell said: "I adore him and I will always be in his life for ever.

"He'll always know who his dad is. Fatherhood for me is the ultimate success."
