First Dates Ireland star Mateo Saina welcomes second child with wife Vjerana

First Dates Ireland star and host Mateo Saina has welcomed the birth of a second child with his wife Vjerana.

The dad-of-two posted the news about the birth of his son on Instagram with a picture of the child's feet.

He followed this with a snap of himself in hospital scrubs.

He wrote "Joy nbr 2 is here" and followers have congratulated the two.

The couple are already parents to their daughter Isabelle Luna who turns two this May.

Mateo Saina is known in Ireland for hosting the RTE programme First Dates Ireland, which is now in it's sixth season on RTE.

They got engaged over three years ago but aren't planning for a wedding anytime soon.

He told the Sunday World in February: "We got engaged, we had a child and that wasn't a priority and then corona happened and now we have another baby on the way.

"The last thing we think about is us.

"I guess it is a corona baby. Nobody has a plan and nobody is ready for children - not for the first, second or third.

"Right now it's like we have two kids in the house because we have a new puppy.

"She will grow up with my daughter, they love each other, they are always up to something which is why I'm so busy.

"Isabella is two-and-a-half, she is quite like me. She has her own set of rules, nobody listens to me in the house anymore. I need to go back to work.”
