Strictly star Ellie Taylor has given birth to her second child, a baby boy, with husband Phil Black earlier than expected.
The comedian and Ted Lasso star, 40, who competed in the BBC dance show with Johannes Radebe last year, took to Instagram to share the news.
Ellie was meant to be doing a stand-up gig at the Royal Variety Performance tonight, but had to pull out at the last minute after welcoming her newborn.
The star posted a mirror selfie of the dress she was meant to be wearing for the glamorous event before giving birth, followed by another snap from her hospital bed, cuddling her new arrival.
She captioned the post: “This is the fabulous outfit I was meant to be wearing tonight while doing stand-up at the @royalvarietyperformance in front of 4,000 people, including @princeandprincessofwales.
“Swipe to see the actual outfit I’ll be wearing tonight due to the surprise early arrival of my own little HRH…
“Gutted to miss out but also very very happy to be wearing giant mesh knickers and saying “But his skin is just so SOFT!” ten times an hour.
“Mother and baby doing well because mummy has access to morphine and baby has access to boobies.
“Wishing the rest of the performers the best night for a fantastic cause! Wishing me 12 hours sleep and a massive Pina Colada (not with the morphine, don’t worry…).”
