Actor Gemma Atkinson and professional dancer Gorka Marquez have announced the arrival of their second baby.
The former Hollyoaks star met the Strictly Come Dancing professional on the hit BBC show back in 2017, and the couple share a daughter, Mia, who was born in 2019.
Now, they have welcomed another child, with Gemma sharing the news on her Instagram stories. She wrote: “Little man is here! He arrived safe and sound and he’s utterly wonderful.”
Speaking about the reaction of the baby’s older sister, the ex-Emmerdale star wrote: “Mia is already the mother hen we expected her to be.
“We’re all home together soaking up this lovely little bubble before Gorks has to leave for Strictly rehearsals next week.”
They have not yet revealed the name of the baby boy, but Gemma thanked fans for “all the lovely well wishes,” and added: “Our family is complete.”
Gemma and Gorka weren’t paired-up on Strictly, as the actor and influencer was partnered with Aljaz Skorjanec, and the pro worked with Alexandra Burke. They got together after the series, and announced their engagement in 2021.
The couple shared news on social media earlier this year that another baby was on its way. In a joint post on Instagram, Gemma wrote: “Impossible to hide my belly any longer. I’ve officially “popped.” 😂.”
Last week, Gorka posted: “Not long until We meet you mini G 🥰🦋🧡”.
The couple recently revealed that they are releasing a pregnancy documentary called Gemma and Gorka: Life Behind the Lens.
The celeb couple said: “We’re so excited to be working with W on a project which not only takes people into our lives behind closed doors but also one that raises awareness of Vaginal Birth After Caesarean Delivery (VBAC) and an honest look into the journey of a second pregnancy after a previous traumatic birth.”
Meanwhile, the new series of Strictly due to hit our screens this autumn, and rumours are rife as to which celebrities will be taking part this year, with reports suggesting that the oldest ever contestant has signed up.
