Potioncat, jumping in: 
I found this at Quick Quotes, from a 16 July 2005 interview:
>>>>James's parents were elderly, were getting on a little when he 
was born, which explains the only child, very pampered, had-him-late-
in-life-so-he's-an-extra-treasure, as often happens, I think.<<<<

Pampered may not be spoiled--but it certainly is a nod in that 
direction. 

Potioncat, who knows all about getting on a little, very pampered, 
had-him-late-in-life-so-he's-an-extra-treasure situation.----Let me 
show you my photos of the darlings.
