Gogglebox star Pete Sandiford welcomes baby son with partner Paige Yeomans

Gogglebox star Pete Sandiford has welcomed a baby son.

The reality TV star shared the happy news with The Mirror at the National Television Awards held at the 02 Arena on Thursday.

The TV star told that he is "overwhelmed" by his new role as a doting father before adding that the little tot is a "cool lad."

On being a father, the Channel 4 personality said: "It's a bit overwhelming, got it all going on at the moment!"

Revealing the sex of his first child, Pete added: "He's cool little lad, takes after his mum not me!"

Pete then quipped: "I’ve been up all night, I slept on the train here - got suitcases under my eyes, you just got me at a good time now."
