Reflecting on his incredible year - which saw Kevin shift an incredible 500,000 tickets on his Overdue Catch-Up tour, the Scottish star shared the rare personal snap.

Kevin was seen heading for an arena exit door as he held his youngster in one hand and was followed by his 'dug'.

The dad also told Scottish Sun that he and wife Kerry have named the the boy Liam.

He captioned the post: "Five arena tours done! Mental.

"Thank you to everyone who came out. It’s been a ride. From the comedy clubs in January right up to the big b****** arenas, we go again and again.

"A few off field issues to deal with and then there will be some international dates and of course a DVD / special / whatever it’s called these days.

"To 2023, man and god bless the heart to the trigger fans, and my mum, dad, brar, wife, and legend of son and my dug - thank you.

"There we were, now here we are.

"See you all very shortly…."
