This Morning Presenter Sian Welby Announces Birth of First Child and Reveals Adorable Name

Welcome to the World, Baby Ruby!

Exciting news for fans of This Morning! Presenter Sian Welby has announced the arrival of her first child. The 37-year-old, who is also known for her role on Capital Breakfast alongside Jordan North and Chris Stark, shared the joyful news on Instagram today.

Sian, who is in a loving relationship with Heart Breakfast producer Jake Beckett, posted some adorable pictures of their newborn daughter wrapped in a knitted jumper that revealed her beautiful name—Ruby.

Sian captioned the Instagram post simply yet sentimentally: “Our little Ruby.” Such a tender moment melted the hearts of many who quickly flooded the comments to shower the new parents with love and congratulations.

Among the many well-wishers was her co-host Chris, who commented: “Welcome to the world, little Ruby. Cannot wait to meet you.”

It’s clear that baby Ruby is already dearly loved. One follower commented, “Awwww what a beautiful first photo to see as I opened Instagram Sian. Congratulations, Ruby is such a gorgeous name too. You both look a picture of happiness.” Another added, “Welcome to the world Ruby, congrats Sian and Jake, hope you are all doing well.” The joy felt by friends, family, and fans alike radiated throughout the Instagram comments.

Sian had previously shared the happy news of her pregnancy on the radio back in February. Taking her co-hosts and listeners by surprise, she announced live on air: “Being serious guys, I’ve got a bit of an announcement for you… I’m pregnant!” Her revelation came as a delightful shock to Roman Kemp, who had recently left the show, and to Chris Stark, her current co-host.

During her pregnancy announcement, Sian also humorously shared how she managed to keep her big news a secret for so long. At a work gathering last Christmas, she ingeniously intercepted a drinks order to ensure she received a non-alcoholic mojito, avoiding any suspicion.
