Singer and TV presenter Charlotte Church has given birth today to a baby boy. The baby weighed in at a healthy 7lb 5oz. Charlotte, 22, and son are said to be "doing just fine", according to the star's website although the baby has yet to be named.
Boyfriend and rugby player Gavin Henson, 26, was with her as she gave birth in a birthing pool at their farmhouse home in the Vale of Glamorgan. There were two midwives in attendance.
Ruby Megan Henson, their first child, was born in September 2007 and so the latest addition to the Church-Hensons is only 15 months younger.
A message was posted on Charlotte's website at 3.30pm today saying: "Charlotte has literally just this minute phoned us to let us know that she gave birth to a little boy today. He was born just after midnight at her and Gavin's home with Gavin in attendance at the birth."
Charlotte has said in the past that she'd like to have 6 children and Gavin has also stated a preference for a large brood.
"I want all my babies by the time I'm 32 so then I can have everything done," she said on the Jonathan Ross Show.
