Proud dad Joe wrote, 'This morning. A lot earlier than planned I watched the love of my life, bring a new life into the world. We are overwhelmed, overjoyed and apprehensive of what’s to come. Mummy and baby are well and resting. We are so grateful for all of the love, support and positivity we’ve received over the last 8 months. I’m lost for words to describe how I’m feeling. So for now, I’m going to spend the next few days and the rest of my life falling more in love with these two humans. I didn’t think it possible but, today I witnessed the impossible. My partner, My love, my life, you are a super human. I am forever in awe. Joe X'. [sic]

The cute photos didn't end there either, the former EastEnders actor woke his followers up this morning by revealing Stacey had given birth to a boy. Sharing a photo of himself kissing his son's tiny foot, Joe wrote, 'Good morning sonxxxxx'. [sic]
