This comes after Dani announced the happy news in a social media post of her own on Sunday.
She wrote: "After a very long day and night finally our special little boy arrived, weighing 7 pounds.

"Sending all my love to all the other mommas to be out there in lockdown.. the best experience ever will never forget this day."

Meanwhile, Mick Carter actor Danny previously said he was ‘very upset’ about not being able to visit his first grandchild in hospital due to the strict coronavirus restrictions.
He said: “I’m obviously a bit concerned because you’re having a pandemic kid, which rules out me going up the hospital.
"I don’t think I’m allowed to see my own grandchild. That is very upsetting."
