I’m A Celebrity: South Africa star Jordan Banjo welcomed his third baby with wife Naomi just before the current ITV series started.
The couple already have two children together – son Cassius Ashley, four, and daughter Mayowa ‘Mimi’ Angel, three – so the new baby makes the Banjos a happy family of five.
Friends, fans and famous faces rushed to congratulate the couple on their happy news after it was shared on social media.
Diversity star Jordan was among the stars who headed off to South Africa last autumn to film the I’m A Celebrity all stars series. And, while he’s currently on screen in the jungle, because the series isn’t live he’s most likely at home now, up to his elbows in dirty nappies!
