The new dad, who dated Dani Dyer in the reality show, was pictured cradling the tot in his arms in the adorable pic.
He captioned the image: “I’m normally a very open book and share most of my life on my social media. This blessing I chose not to. I’m just a normal geezer, who went on a TV show, which throws you straight into the public eye… which I will forever be grateful for.
I knew for myself I needed personal time and to keep this part of my life private to prepare for this new responsibility and part of me that will change my life forever.
“However I knew for myself I needed personal time and to keep this part of my life private to prepare for this new responsibility and part of me that will change my life forever.
“This is undoubtedly the best thing that has ever happened to me and it’s true what they say, the instant feeling of love and connection you have with your child is a feeling like no other.
