McFly's Tom Fletcher and Wife Giovanna Welcome Baby Son

Tom Fletcher has become a dad for the first time after his wife Giovanna gave birth to a bouncing baby boy.

The McFly star announced the baby news on twitter, revealing that his son was 'insanely gorgeous'.

Yep, @MrsGiFletcher gave birth to our insanely gorgeous son yesterday at 7pm. He is healthy, beautiful and I’ve already changed his nappy.

Sorry for my twitter silence over the last 24hrs, I’ve been far too busy cuddling my son… :)

Minutes later Giovanna, who is TOWIE star Mario Falcone's sister, took to social media to express her joy over their new arrival.

THRILLED to announce the safe arrival of our little BOY! Born last night at 7pm. I can’t stop staring at and kissing him! I’m in love!?? Xxx

The thought of Baby Fletcher makes me so happily teary and excited for Tom and Gi.

McFly's Harry Judd also joined in the baby babble, writing: "Congratulations to @tommcfly and @MrsGiFletcher on the birth of there son. I will be meeting him in approximately 1.30 hours!! So excited!!"

The proud parents revealed they had a baby on the way back in November by posting a Halloween-themed video on YouTube.

In the two-minute clip, they carved out four pumpkins before turning off the lights to reveal the words "we're having a baby".
