Jay touched on his parenting philosophy with The Sunday Times in Apr. 2021. He told the newspaper, “Feeling loved is the most important thing a child needs.
“Not ‘Here’s this business that I’m going to hand over to you, that I’m creating for you.’ What if my child doesn’t want to be in music or sports? I have no idea, right? But as long as your child feels supported, and feels loved, I think anything is possible.”
