EastEnders star Ricky Champ is a father again after his wife Sammy revealed she'd given birth to a baby boy.
The mum-of-two shared the happy news on Instagram announcing the tot had arrived ahead of schedule.
Sharing a pic of the drugs she needed after her Caesarian, she wrote: "My waters broke 2 weeks early (the night I got my date which was supposed to be July 6!
"Baby boy is here and well. And we are obsessed," followed by four blue hearts.
Sammy also posted a snap of some morphine and anti-clotting jabs, which are often needed after the operation.
She captioned the collection of meds: "Tell me you've just had a C-section without telling me you've just had a C-section."
The couple's fans flocked to congratulate the proud parents on their new arrival, who joins the family of three.
Ricky, 41, and his wife already have a four-year-old daughter called Beatrix, who takes pride of place on Sammy's social media.
The adorable red-head will no doubt be delighted with her new baby brother.
The actor first announced his wife was expecting again with an ultrasound pic, bunch of blooms and a wooden sign reading: "Baby Champ. Due July 2022."
However it wasn't smooth sailing for Sammy, who ended up in hospital in March.
She told followers: "Not where I planned spending today. Everything’s OK with bub, just high blood pressure for me.
“Southend hospital midwives are amazing. We are so lucky to have the NHS.”
Sammy's hubby Ricky is at the centre of his own baby storyline in EastEnders.
New dad Stuart has been battling with postnatal depression ever since baby Roland was born earlier this year.
He shares the tot with Rainie, played by Tanya Franks, who he chose to dump un heartbreaking scenes telling her it was better for the baby.
EastEnders is on BBC One, Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm.
