In one of the Instagram posts, Patrick said: "Leonardo got his first real guitar aged 4 after he kept building a guitar out of his building block toys and pretended to play along with the music. This was completely organic, and we have never instigated or forced him to play the guitar."
"It is completely his choice to have long hair," she added.
