Good Morning Britain<\/a> returned to TV screens on Tuesday (5 August) with Kate Garraway<\/a> and Ed Balls<\/a> back at the helm of the ITV<\/a> show.<\/p>\n

The presenting duo brought ITV viewers all of the day’s news and headlines, with Richard Arnold<\/a> joining them to present the latest TV and showbiz updates.<\/p>\n

During Richard’s segment, he made an exciting announcement, revealing two celebrities had welcomed their first child together.<\/p>\n

“Congratulations are in order for my one-time stand-in, Vick Hope<\/a>!” Richard excitedly told GMB<\/a> fans. “Vick and husband Calvin Harris have welcomed a baby boy<\/a>, you may have seen on the interweb, who they have named Micah.”<\/p>\n

Richard went on to explain more about the couple’s baby announcement, which was shared to Calvin’s Instagram<\/a> account on Tuesday evening.<\/p>\n

“Now, Calvin celebrated the arrival on Instagram, not to everyone’s taste though. Calvin also revealed he had the placenta dried and converted into pills, as the search for eternal youth continues. Congratulations though, to the Hope-Harris family,” Richard added.<\/p>\n

Kate then interjected: “It’s very good for you though!” with Richard agreeing: “Yes it is indeed! So, good luck with those pills. Very Hollywood but nevertheless what fantastic news to wake up to this morning.”<\/p>\n

Calvin, who married Radio 1 presenter Vick in 2023 in a festival-themed ceremony in Ibiza, posted a selection of photographs and a sweet tribute to his wife to mark the arrival of their baby son on social media.<\/p>\n

“20th of July our boy arrived. Micah is here! My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah,” the new dad-of-one penned.<\/p>\n

Calvin’s collection of photos revealed that Vick had a water birth, with one snap showing her in a blue birthing pool outside on a balcony with an incredible view. Other photos showed the placenta being made into pills as well as Calvin, real name Adam Wiles, holding his newborn son.<\/p>\n

The new parents were inundated with well wishes and messages from both fans and their celebrity pals.<\/p>\n

Fellow DJ Mista Jam wrote: “Welcome to Parenthood guys. The best ride of your life,” while Craig David said: “Congratulations to you both. Amazing.”<\/p>\n

Gordon Ramsay commented: “Congratulations @calvinharris @vicknhope welcome to the world<\/a> Micah,” and Pixie Lott added: “omg congrats vick and calvin!!!! so lovely,” with a row of heart emojis.<\/p>\n
