In a post, Sean said: "My wife is a superhero! Rocky Hegarty. 04.06.23 / 9lb 05oz."
The pair have been inundated with well-wishes and congratulations from friends and fans.
Back in 2020, Diona and Sean opened up on their journey with IVF ahead of the birth of their first child Winter after a six year process to start their family.
And speaking again to Belfast Live back in April, Diona explained how she travelled on her own this time to Czech Republic to undergo the embryo transfer for their second baby, who was born on Sunday.
"All went really well and it was a first-time successful embryo transfer this time so I was pregnant straight away," the comedian and actress said.
