Taking to Instagram, the star shared a loving snap of the pair with their newborn as they admitted: "It's been a long old journey to get him" following their lengthy fertility struggles.
The couple were soon flooded with congratulatory messages from their famous friends and loyal fans online.
Their emotional post read: "Oh baby…. He's here… After a long induction, a long labour, lots of ups & downs & all the drama along the way (oh don't you worry I'll be filing you in on everything… [smiley emoji]) our hearts are near to bursting with the arrival of our precious baby boy…
"I just can't believe I have him, here, in my arms, safely home and ours to keep for always. It still hasn't sunk in… I'm definitely still in shock and I still can't believe he's mine.
"It’s been a long old journey to get him and now as he lays against my chest, whimpering softly, already starting to root for some booby time I feel like I’m the luckiest mama in the land."
They continued: "I’m soaking it all in. Letting my hair sit like a birds nest on my head, letting the washing pile up, letting the hours while away as I hold him, and sniff him (oh that smell ) because I’ve waited so long for this moment. And I’m loving every second… xx
"The boys are all besotted, James is in love, there’s so much that’s happened, ooh I just can’t wait to fill you in… but for now – we just wanted to say thank you.
"To our friends, family & all of you lovely lot… all of your support & kindness & messages. Well, It’s meant the absolute world."
The actor continued: "I’m going to take a few days to cocoon away and let my sleep befuddled brain catch up & then I’ll be back with all the details. And ALL the baby spam.
"Much love… The Byes (all SIX of us!)," which they signed off with a kiss.
Victoria updated her loyal legion of fans with adorable snaps of her blossoming baby bump throughout her pregnancy.
