When Clarkson asked him to share the ages of his kids, the actor didn't answer right away.

"Oh, I don't know," Grant joked. "They go from, I've got a 13-year-old daughter right down to a 6-year-old daughter...and there are some sons sprinkled in there somewhere."

"Are you like the jungle gym dad?" Clarkson wanted to know, asking if his kids "crawl all over" him.

"I love a bit of that," he said. "I mean, there's a lot to dread 'cause I'm old, and it's noisy, and it's unbearable."

"And I do a lot of hiding in the loo. I do a lot of sleeping in there now," he continued. "There's a lock, but they've pretty much broken it now."

Clarkson completely understood, and shared that she spends so much time in the bathroom her kids probably assume she has IBS (irritable bowel syndrome).

"Well, children give you IBS," Grant pointed out before changing course.

"It is nice," he admitted. "I'm going home tonight, and you know, let's face it, the bit where they jump in your arms. The 6-year-old, you know, she calls it her chimpanzee hug. I quite like that," he said, adding, "I've made myself cry."
