YouTuber PewDiePie shares name and pictures of first child with wife Marzia

YouTuber PewDiePie has been showered with celebratory messages after sending fans wild with first pictures of his new baby with wife Marzia Kjellberg. The 33-year-old, who boasts of 111 million subscribers on the video-sharing platform, took to Instagram this morning to announce the birth of their new bundle of joy - called Björn.

In the first string of images, the Swedish star - whose real name is Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg - can be seen lovingly gazing at his new-born as Marzia cradles the baby on her lap. He also shared a photo of Marzia holding the little one on her chest, as well as a snapshot of the cot they have set up, adorned with cuddly toys and a knitted outfit with the name Björn written on it.

In the caption, he wrote: "11 / 07 / 2023 Welcome to the family, little Björn," with a teddy bear and red heart emoji. The comment section quickly became flooded with messages of proud friends and followers.

Bingus.official excitedly put: "LETS GOOOOOOOO." In reference to the baby's name, Tccandler joked: "He only has to win Wimbledon 6 times to live up to that name!"

Keoxer gushed: "Congratulations guys." Grentperez typed: "RAAAAAHHHHHHH CONGRATS!!!" Thecardguy quipped: "THE INTERNET’S FAVORITE BABY."

Pewdiepie_stanpage added: "...Eternally proud of them for how far they've come and all that they're done together. Y'all are the standards. I'm the happiest person today. Welcome to the world, little bjorn."

The YouTuber first announced Marzia's pregnancy in February. Just one hour after uploading a video telling fans the news, it had reached a whopping 680,000 views.

The video titled: "We're having a baby!" featured a montage of clips showing the couple finding out they were going to be parents and reading their positive pregnancy test.

They also revealed their first baby scan as Felix begins the video by telling fans: "I've been keeping a secret from you guys, and that is, I'm going to be a dad."
