Peter Andre and Emily MacDonagh have welcomed their second child into the world.

The 27-year-old gave birth to a baby boy on Monday morning (21.11.16) and Peter has taken to social media to thank his fans for their well wishes.

He wrote on Twitter: “Very very happy for our new baby boy :)) … Thanks so much for all your lovely comments. Buzzing. (sic)”

No other details about the tot have been released yet but a spokesperson for Peter did reveal both Emily and her little boy are doing well.

They told The Sun: “Peter and Emily are both extremely happy. Both mother and baby are doing fine.”

Meanwhile, Emily previously revealed that Peter – who already has two-year-old daughter Amelia with Emily and Junior, 11, and Princess, nine, from his previous marriage to Katie Price – cried when he found out Emily was expecting another child.

She said: “Millie and I wrapped up the test and put it in a little bag. When Pete got home I told him we had got him a present. He didn’t get it and was just looking at the test. He thought I’d just bought one to do! Pete started crying when I told him I was pregnant. He was really happy.”

During her pregnancy, Emily was rushed to hospital as she was having contractions but it was a false alarm.

She explained: “I had to go to the hospital two weeks ago because I’m having contractions already, which makes me think this baby could come early like Amelia. I rang my mum [who is a paediatrician] and said they were happening every two minutes.

“I thought she would say it was fine but she told me to go to the hospital. They hooked me up to a monitor. The doctors don’t know why I’m having them, but the baby is happy, healthy and moving around.”
