Gemma Atkinson showed that not much has changed since she welcomed her second child into the world as she made a saucy quip involving her fiance Gorka Marquez as she shared details of her labour for the first time.
Bury-born Gemma and Spanish dancer Gorka announced back in January that they were expanding their brood alongside trying of sweet black and white snaps featuring first-born Mia, who arrived in July 2019. They have since kept their fans and followers updated on their journey to becoming a family-of-four and last week confirmed their 'little man' had finally made his entrance.
Hits Radio host Gemma and Strictly Come Dancing star Gorka both shared the same message to their Instagram Story to confirm the arrival of their baby boy, saying he was "utterly wonderful" and joked that Mia, four, was "the mother hen we expected her to be."

They since announced they'd called their new arrival Thiago Thomas Marquez, with Gemma since sharing he'll be called 'Tio' for short. She explained that Thiago was a Portuguese name, and Gorka's mum is Portuguese, and that Thomas was her dad's middle name, a tribute to her father David who died when she was 17.
And taking to social media on Wednesday (July 26), Gemma opened up about Thiago's birth for the first time, a week on from his arrival, after she was quizzed on whether she had the vaginal birth she was hoping for following her traumatic emergency C-section with Mia.
"Lots of you have asked if I got my much hoped for VBAC…. This was me on mon 17th July 3hrs after an elected C section," the former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale star typed alongside a picture of herself laying in a hospital
