By saying he is already a bonus father, he is referring to the fact that he lives with Kelly and her little daughter, Penelope, in Monaco. Regular livestreams from Team Redline show how Verstappen and 'P' interact. In the future, Penelope will have co-star alongside her as she will most certainly continue to make appearances on Verstappen's livestreams.
