It’s been amazing, so we just wanted to share this with everybody.”
He added, that they are still deciding on a name for their son. “We’re still thinking about names. The baby’s a little bit overdue, so we’ve had a little bit of time to think about it, but that’s the next bit. For now, it looks like we’ll be seeing you guys in two days time, as planned, as a family, to be able to share it with you guys so everyone can see the baby.”
