"He’s here, he’s perfect," said Martha.

Michael then commented that their son's name is pronounced "'LOO-SHUS' if you're wondering".

Martha said: "It hasn't been this exciting, wonderful time for us. I don't want to sound like I'm complaining. 

"We are so excited, we are so happy, it was a complete surprise. But at five weeks I was diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum.

"Which is severe chronic nausea and vomiting with no relief. It is 24-7. I literally didn't get out of bed for two months."

Martha revealed that the horrifying sickness meant she lost ten kilograms in weight in just a matter of weeks.
