David Koch's daughter Poppy has just given birth to a baby girl - but David and his wife Libby can't meet their precious granddaughter because of the Australian government's COVID-19 lockdown laws.

Kochie's heartbreak: 'We're devastated'

'Welcome to the family Ella Hope Elizabeth Jayasinghe you gorgeous little girl,' the Sunrise host announced via his Instagram account.

'You’re so lucky to have such a wonderful mum... and Dad and 2 brothers. Grandchild number 6, born in Perth and devastated we can’t be there for a cuddle.'

Kochie accompanied the heartbreaking message with a collage of photos from Poppy and beautiful Ella's hospital room.
