Singer-songwriter Robbie Williams, who has admitted to trying heroin and cocaine in the past, says he doubts his daughter will ever do the same. And in case she does, he will make sure she takes the "best possible".
"I doubt she'll be like me. Touch wood, and follow that with a lot of love and a lot of luck, she won't go there or have to go there," thesun.co.uk quoted Williams as saying.
"If unfortunately that does happen, I'll know what to do. Which is make sure she's got the best drugs possible - and take them with her," he said.
The "Take That" star, who is married to actress Ayda Field, also revealed that he had written a song for his nine-month-old daughter Theodora Rose Williams aka Teddy, and that it was inspired by his drug and alcohol troubles.
"It goes, 'Sit down, close the door I think it's time you knew the score, why you feel weird. One day you'll be told about, how Daddy let his demons out, yeah he makes them scream and shout. So what better when you're old enough, and you're out on your own and stuff, if you start losing hold of love it's because...."
The singer also said how Teddy is pals with singer Adele's eight-month-old son Angelo, nicknamed Little Peanut.
"Her son and my daughter go on play dates. Little Peanut is on the list of potential suitors for Teddy," he added.
