Calvin Harris and his partner Vick Hope have joyfully announced the arrival of their first child together.
The 41 year old DJ and 35 year old television presenter welcomed their baby boy on July 20, choosing to share the delightful news with fans today.
Taking to Instagram this Monday, the ‘One Kiss’ producer shared the first photograph of his newborn son, revealing the unique name they’ve chosen for him.
This follows Hailey Bieber’s rare glimpse of son Jack Blues amidst rumours of a second pregnancy.
Captioning a heartwarming image of their baby snuggled against his father’s chest, Calvin wrote: “20th of July our boy arrived. Micah is here! My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah.”, reports the Daily Star.
In the series of photographs Calvin posted to announce Micah’s birth, it was revealed that Vick chose a water birth, with pictures showing her in a blue birthing pool lit by candlelight, according to the Mirror.
The first-time mum gave birth to her son outdoors on a balcony, surrounded by a stunning view of lush greenery and trees.
Doting dad Calvin was by Vick’s side throughout the entire birth, with one heartwarming photo showing him crouched next to his partner just moments after their son Micah was born.
The Scottish DJ also shared a surprising image of Vick’s placenta on Instagram, revealing that they had chosen to preserve it. According to Calvin’s social media post, the couple decided to have the placenta encapsulated for later use.
This process involves steaming, dehydrating and turning the placenta into pill form for consumption.
Calvin and Vick managed to keep their baby news under wraps until they made their joyous announcement in late May.
After dropping several hints online this year – including sharing photos from a recent baby shower – Countryfile presenter Vick finally confirmed her pregnancy in May.
While the expectant star and producer Calvin usually keep their relationship private, they have occasionally shared snippets of their life together, including their Glastonbury-themed wedding in September 2023.
Vick announced that she and the music legend were expecting their first child together during a live Radio 1 broadcast. During the announcement, Vick shared her exciting news and spoke about her pregnancy publicly for the first time.
The radio host, who presents the station’s drivetime show with Katie Thistleton and Jamie Laing, shared with listeners: “I should say that this is my final week. I wanted to share that with you because we’ve had such a lovely time over the last few weeks. That time is coming to an end for a bit because I’m going on maternity leave next week.”
Jamie, former star of Made In Chelsea, added his support: “You’re an amazing friend, an amazing person, and you’re just going to be an amazing mum.”
Vick then explained why she had kept her pregnancy news under wraps.
She stated: “This is not an announcement, by the way. People keep saying are you going to announce, are you going to announce? And I’m like, I’m not the King. I do not see the point, it’s not for me. I’ll be honest, I struggle with anything that’s personal or private.
“I will tell you a story about eating a kebab out of a bin, that’s one thing. But there’s a line and so I’ve never been that big on sharing. Particularly because I’ve just been enjoying this privately and quietly.”
Calvin proposed to Vick after only five months of dating during a romantic trip to his Ibiza farm.
The pair exchanged vows just four months later in a stunning ceremony at Hulne Priory in Alnwick.
Famous faces such as AJ Odudu, Scott Mills, and Vernon Kay were in attendance at the festival-themed wedding. The grand celebration boasted a spectacular fireworks display and live performances from music icons Nile Rogers and Chic.
