In a statement released today, the talent agency said that they are now spending time together as a family and have asked for privacy.

"NK Management is pleased to announce that Lottie Ryan has given birth to a baby boy prematurely at 33 weeks," they said.

"Lottie and Fabio will now be spending time as a family and we ask that their privacy be respected at this time."

The birth of their baby boy comes just one month after the RTE presenter revealed that her due date was close.

Speaking to her Instagram followers she said: "I won't say exactly but I will say I'm close. I'm in the third [trimester] and I definitely feel like he needs to come out soon.
