The TV presenter, one half of entertainment duo Ant and Dec, announced the news on the joint Instagram account he has with his co-presenter.

The 48-year-old shared a black and white photo showing him holding the newborn, and revealed the baby's name.

He wrote: "Welcome to the family. Wilder Patrick Mcpartlin.

"Born, 14/05/24 at 8.54am.

"Baby is beautiful, Mummy's a legend, Sisters are over the moon. Dad's a mess!"

McPartlin and Corbett were married in 2021 in a church ceremony in Hampshire.

Among the guests were presenters Dermot O'Leary, husband and wife duo Patrick Kielty and Cat Deeley, and comedian David Walliams.
