Ant McPartlin has broken his silence on becoming a dad after welcoming his first child, a baby boy with wife Anne-Marie Corbett on May 14.
The 48-year-old made his first television appearance on Monday’s first semi-final of Britain’s Got Talent and talk soon turned to the big news in Ant’s life.
As Ant and Dec spoke to the judges before the first contestant took to the stage, Simon Cowell took the opportunity to congratulate his long-time friend and colleague.
Simon, 64, expressed: “I’d like to congratulate you on becoming a dad Ant, I’m really happy for you.”
The audience cheered for Ant as he thanked Simon for his lovely wishes and for the gift he had sent him for his baby boy.
