They will bring the veteran crooner’s kid count to 11 by five different women.

His eight children range in age from one to 39.

“I don’t know that he set out to have 11 children, including triplets at his age, but it’s not like he isn’t happy about it or he can’t afford children,” Page Six quoted a “family source” as saying.

Wonder has been married twice before, and already has one child with Bracy.
