“My step-son Lewis and his wife Lizzy gave birth to a beautiful little boy and I can’t say much more because they haven’t done the sort of photo [reveal].”
Speaking about going for the name “nana”, Denise said: “I’ve gone for nana because when you have blended families you have to share the baby out between so many people.
“I’ve gone for nana, my mum was nana and I had a nana.
“I wanted Lincoln to be grumpa. In the Northeast we say ‘grumpa’, but grandpa. So he’s going to be grandad.
“Lewis’ mum is going to be nanny and Lizzy’s mum and dad are just thinking about what they’re going to be.”
Denise added: “We’re all thrilled and I can’t wait to share the photos with you.”
