Stars are so busy making movies and working on their brands it is a shock that they have time to start a family as kids take so much time to raise.
But many celebrities have taken the time to enjoy big families.
Think of Mia Farrow who has a total of 14 kids with several different men (one of them Woody Allen) – and many of them are adopted.
Then there is Nick Cannon who has 10 children – two are with songbird Mariah Carey – as the actor says he has no plans to stop pro-creating.
Clint Eastwood and Alec Baldwin also have a big brood as they have chosen to have children later in life as well.
Hollywood icons Angelina Jolie and Madonna both have six each.
Here is a look at tons of celebrities who have a soccer team at home.

Satchel ‘Ronan’ O’Sullivan Farrow was born in 1997 and is the youngest of the four boys that Mia gave birth to.

‘Because, whoever you are, having children and raising them is a work of art. And no one gives you a manual. You have to learn from mistakes. It is a profession that requires a lot of time. And it is exhausting because there is never rest.’
