Following their engagement in early 2021, Mel shared that her partner had given birth to their first child, Harry.
Mel explained to KIIS 97.3FM in November 2022, that the two had welcomed their baby that September, but tried to keep it as private as she could at the time.
“It’s a big announcement and I want to get it done. One, for attention and two, to tell everyone in one hit so I don’t have to go and keep telling people,” she joked.
“I don’t quite know how to say it. I have… I’ve got a baby. I have a baby. I’m not joking. This isn’t a ‘bit,’ I’m not going to trick you.
“I have a seven-week-old baby. My partner and I had a baby. He’s a boy.”
She has since shared more about her son on Instagram and continues to post updates about her life as a mother.
