Adam Levine wants to be a dad

Adam Levine has a 10-year plan - he wants to be the father of a two-year-old tot by the time he's 42.

The Maroon 5 hunk is currently enjoying a busy schedule, re-releasing the band's third album, Hands All Over, and sitting on the panel of TV talent show, The Voice.

But the 32 year old is already eyeing the quiet life, and insists in a decade he wants to be at home focusing on fatherhood.

He tells Piers Morgan Tonight, "Where do I wanna be when I'm 42? I would (like) to be working less and... considering the idea of having a family and at that age I like the idea of having a two year old. I want to start having kids."

However, the star, who is dating supermodel Anne Vyalitsyna, isn't as sure about marriage as he is about parenting, adding: "I don't think you necessarily have to be married to have children. Marriage is a controversial thing, clearly. In a lot of ways it doesn't work, and in a lot of ways it does."
