Sir Patrick Stewart has confessed that he feels a deep sense of sorrow over his "non-existent" relationship with his two children.The Star Trek legend, 83, is the father to son Daniel and daughter Sophie from his first marriage to Sheila Falconer, but sadly admits he is now "separated" from them.The veteran actor opened up about his strained relationship with his adult children, saying: "Given that I'm separated from my children now, we don't have relationships they have become very important.
