The couple already have two children, both with uncommon names - a son, Cassius Ashley, aged four, and daughter, Mayowa Angel, aged three, who is nicknamed Mimi.
Revealing the latest arrival’s equally unusual name, Jordan wrote: ”Atreus Funso Banjo 20.04.2023 8lb 8oz. I’m so proud of you @naomibanjo, my angel, my wife and the most incredible mum to our children, thank you for our 3 beautiful children, a gift I can never repay, I love you.”
His best friend and radio co-host Perry Kiely rushed to share love heart emojis on the post, alongside other Diversity team members Morgan Plom and Starr Keily, with former Love Island presenter Laura Whitmore also expressing her congratulations in the comments.
The birth of Atreus comes just days ahead of Jordan appearing on the new series of I’m A Celebrity South Africa, which airs tomorrow. The new show, which was filmed last year, sees contestants from previous I’m a Celeb series compete to become the first ‘I’m a Celebrity Legend’.
The dancer featured on the 16th season of I’m a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! back in 2016, and was the fourth contestant to leave the jungle.
Sharing the news with his 580,000 Instagram followers, he said: “I’m officially going back into the jungle… I’ll tell you this @imacelebrity South Africa was a different level to Australia…You can see it all end of April, wish me luck.”
