Jamie Oliver looked set to burst with pride as he and wife Jools showed off their newborn son outside the Portland Hospital in London.
The TV chef, 41, couldn't keep his eyes off his fifth child, beaming as he gently kissed his forehead.
Oliver and his wife, Jools, welcomed their fifth child, a boy, who Oliver earlier told fans weighed the same as 16 packs of butter.
The couple were joined by their other four children at Portland hospital in London.
They have three girls – Poppy Honey Rosie, Daisy Boo Pamela and Petal Blossom Rainbow – and a boy, Buddy Bear Maurice.
They have yet to reveal the new baby’s name.
The couple did not know the sex of their unborn child, but Oliver had previously said “a bit more testosterone would probably be a good thing”.
Earlier he posted an image of the sleeping baby swaddled in a blanket on his Facebook page. “And then this just happened guys!! It’s a baby boy!! Everyone in the Oliver family is very surprised and beyond happy,” he wrote.
“He arrived safely. Mum … was really really amazing, unbelievably composed, natural birth and my two eldest girls got to come in at the very end as the baby was born which was amazing to witness. Very, very emotional.”
Oliver told fans: “8lbs (that’s 16 packs of butter for you bakers out there). Anyway we’re all hitting the hay. It’s been a long day. Big love … bless a little baby boy Woop Woop !!!!
“And love to all you mums out there how amazing you are it blows my mind … Big love Jamie O.”
Jools, 41, also took to Instagram to share a picture of herself breastfeeding the baby and wrote: "Little baby boy Oliver has arrived we are so very happy, blessed, grateful and totally in love all over again and so very proud of our two eldest daughters who cut the cord Jamie was my hero (no name yet)!!! XXXX (sic)."
Oliver has previously insisted that baby number five will be the couple’s last.
‘This will be the last one. It is just getting ridiculous otherwise.
‘This was not expected. I can’t even believe I’m saying it. My own family were shocked too.’
The couple met in 1993 and tied the knot in 2000, before welcoming their first daughter two years later. Jools conceived her first child using IVF but had the other three naturally.
