Former Eastenders actor turned TV presenter Ross Kemp has become a father for the first time. The 46-year-old’s ex-girlfriend Nicola Coleman gave birth to a baby boy at the end of October. She said:

‘I have had a baby boy and Ross is the father. It was planned. We have seen each other for four years. He will be involved.’

Notoriously known to be very private about his personal life, Ross declined to divulge any information about the new arrival, saying:

‘I don’t speak about my private life and a child is always a blessing.’
