Longtime Gogglebox star Stephen Webb has announced the newest arrival to his family along with sharing some sweet photos. Fans of the show have been watching Stephen since series one, and have already got to know some of his family members.
After appearing on the sofa with best friend Christopher Steed for 10 series, he was joined by his mum Pat and now his husband Daniel Lustig-Webb.
Taking to Instagram, Stephen introduced the latest addition to the family, his great-niece Ezeraye. Sharing photos of himself with the newborn, he wrote: 'Great uncle Stephen with Baby Ezeraye the new addition to the family'.
Clearly besotted with the new baby, he followed the original post up with a photo of Ezeraye sleeping with the simple caption: '❤️'.
Friends and fans were quick to comment on the sweet snaps, with former Gogglebox cast member Lisa Baggs writing: 'Ahhh how gorgeous! Congrats to you all ❤️'.
Fellow Gogglebox star Mica Ven also commented on the post, writing: '😍😍'.
Many fans of the show shared their congratulations in the comments, and several people commented on baby Ezeraye's expression and the way she is looking up to Stephen in the photos. One wrote: 'Aww the way she looks at uncle Stephen 😍🥰', and another added: 'Soooo cute 🥰 her lil face! Who wouldn’t be happy being held by uncle Stephen 🧿'. (sic)
The lovely news comes after Gogglebox star Georgina Bell and her partner Josh Newby welcomed their first child last month. The couple shared an adorable photo of their newborn son and revealed they had named him Hugh James Newby.
