Another series of images saw the proud dad mimicking some of his son’s poses including one snap of the darling tot looking less than impressed.

In the interview with the magazine, Example revealed that nothing prepares you for fatherhood as he admitted: ‘My wife, Erin, and I did these anti-natal classes, where people teach you health and safety and how to wash a baby and all that. When Van was born, we asked each other if we remembered anything at all from all that. It had all disappeared from our minds.

‘Her dad and my dad told me good luck, but that was about it. You have no idea what you’re doing. No matter how many tips you’re given, you just have no idea. The first night we brought him home we couldn’t sleep. Even though you know he’s fine, you can’t help but worry if he’s breathing OK or if he’s rolled over. We were up every hour.

He added: ‘Now we’re past that, the fear is that I really don’t want him to be exposed to the things that I was as a kid. Everything I went through growing up, like the first fight I had or the drugs and violence with weapons that I saw, I’m looking at this baby and thinking how much I absolutely do not want this to come to him.

‘In this crazy modern world we live in, it shouldn’t be normal, but now, and probably at a younger age than I was, kids are going to come face to face with sex, drugs and violence. That’s the main fear for me.’

The rapper showed off the magazine cover on Twitter with the caption: 'My son and I are on the cover talking about fatherhood and all that. Well I am. He can't talk yet.'
