Is it one of Peter's sons who just discovered Byron's presentation copy of Frankenstein in Lord Jay's library? -- Orange Mike | Talk 15:16, 29 June 2019 (UTC) reply

Who are the mothers? Rustygecko ( talk) 04:26, 19 August 2021 (UTC) reply

@ Rustygecko: an article in The Observer confirms that he has seven children. [1] Our article on his first wife Margaret Jay, Baroness Jay of Paddington says that she has three children, and the source it cites [2] says that Peter Jay was their father. IMDb indicates three children from each of his two marriages, but this is not a reliable source for Wikipedia. Verbcatcher ( talk) 22:44, 12 September 2021 (UTC) reply

Margaret Jay's Wiki page states "Peter Jay then had an affair with their nanny, fathering a child in the process (he originally denied paternity)." 82.6.174.106 ( talk) 14:44, 20 July 2023 (UTC) reply
