Gemma Atkinson and Gorka Marquez have welcomed another bundle of joy

The former 'Hollyoaks' actress and the 'Strictly Come Dancing' pro - who met on the BBC Latin and ballroom show in 2017 and have four-year-old daughter Mia together - revealed she has given birth to a baby boy as they made the happy announcement on Wednesday (19.07.23) morning.

Gemma wrote on her Instagram Story: "Little man is here! Her arrived safe and sound and he's utterly wonderful.

"Mia is already the mother hen we expected her to be."

The 38-year-old actress added that they are enjoying a few days in their "lovely little bubble" until Gorka, 32, has to head back to work.

She continued: "We're all home together soaking up this lovely little bubble before Gorks has to leave for Strictly rehearsals next week.

"Thank you for all the lovely well wishes. Our family is complete."

Gorka reposted the same message on his own profile.

The couple had announced Gemma's pregnancy in January as she shared a number of sweet pictures, including a black and white snap of her cuddling Mia.

She wrote at the time: "Impossible to hide my belly any longer. I’ve officially 'popped.' Our baby boy will be joining our family later this year.

"We feel so incredibly blessed and Grateful to be on this journey again. Mia is absolutely thrilled!

"Although we may need to do some negotiating on names, as so far she’s adamant he’s going to be called Barbie."

The couple are yet to reveal what name they've gone for.

Meanwhile, the loved up pair will be fronting their own reality TV show this summer as 'Gemma and Gorka: Life Behind the Lens' heads to W and UTVTV Play, sharing her pregnancy journey up until labour.

She recently 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, and an honest look into the journey of a second pregnancy after a previous traumatic birth."
