Earlier this week Strictly Come Dancing star Brendan Cole welcomed his second child with his wife Zoe Hobbs. Now the dancer has officially confirmed the birth of his baby with a super cute Instagram post.

Reposting his wife's photo, Brendan shared a photo of their baby's legs next to a toy duck. The photo was captioned, 'Two little sets of ducky feet. Bandy legs just like his daddy! Nice of the tabloid press to share OUR news with everyone but hey-ho.

He continued, 'Thanks for all your kind comments on the arrival of our baby boy. We’re all super in love with him especially big sister Aurélia who can’t bare to let him out of her sight. He came right when I asked him to on Daddy’s day off. The power of the mind and the universe is good like that 😜'.

Brendan has yet to confirm the name of their little baby, however reports suggest he may be called Danté. Their new addition is a younger brother to their daughter Aurélia, born on Christmas Day in 2012.

Messages of congratulations have been coming in from the public with comments such as 'Aww congratulations....on daddy's day off too lol 😗' and 'Congratulations to you all, lovely little family. Xx'.

The news of Brendan and Zoe's second child comes just a month after Brendan revealed on Lorraine that he'd been sacked from Strictly Come Dancing.

Despite appearing on the show since the first series, Brendan admitted, “It’s actually hard to talk about. The BBC haven’t renewed my contract. We get contracted year upon year. They’ve made an editorial decision to not have me back on the show. I’m a little bit in shock. I’m quite emotional, a bit raw about it.

“It’s done via a process of a phone call and stuff. I have had 15 incredible series on the show. I’m very proud of the whole show. It’s a great team.”

He later added, “I’m disappointed. It’s very hard to talk about. It’s a recent decision."

Congratulations to Brendan and Zoe on the birth of their baby boy!
