David Bowie's son Duncan welcomes a baby boy

David Bowie's director son Duncan Jones has welcomed his first child, a baby boy, with wife Rodene Ronquillo.

The 45-year-old "Source Code" filmmaker considers his child's birth date special as he is born exactly after six months of his father's death.

Jones shared the news of his son's arrival on his Twitter page along with a sketch.

"Stenton David Jones. Born July 10th, exactly six months after his grandad made room for him. Love you both so," he wrote.

The veteran musician, Bowie, died on January 10 after battling cancer.
