Laura Whitmore speaks out after fans speculate Keith Lemon leaked her newborn's name

Laura Whitmore has broken her silence to set the record straight after fans speculated Keith Lemon had leaked her newborn daughter's name.

TV star Keith, whose real name is Leigh Frances, appeared on This Morning on Thursday to chat about the new series of Celebrity Juice.

The ITV2 series features the likes of Laura and Emily Atack as team captains.

And in his interview, Keith spoke about both panelists who are set to appear in the latest series, but he ended up leaving fans convinced he had said the name of Laura's little one.

He said: "We've got Laura Whitmore as well, who's at home watching this with her child. So hello to Emily and Laura, hello."

Fans of the Irish radio and TV presenter quickly assumed he was talking about Laura and her daughter, however she later took to Twitter to clear things up.

One fan asked if Keith was talking about Emily Atack, to which Laura responded: "Ha ha, yes he was! Emily and I are team captains. It's a gorgeous name, but would get confusing x."

Laura gave birth to her first child with husband Iain Stirling last week but has yet to confirm their daughter's name.

The Love Island host previously made the revelation she was having a baby girl in her new self-help book No One Can Change Your Life Except for You.

She wrote: "As I finish this book, it doesn't end at chapter nine, there's a new chapter coming into my life - in the form of a baby girl currently growing inside me and that scares the s**t out of me.

"I once swallowed a bug and freaked out there was a live bug inside me.

"A live human is a whole new level of freaking out but I am excited because there's a lot of good in the world, there's a lot of potential."
