Baby name meaning

While Jeremy hasn’t revealed why they chose the name Iris for their little girl, according to The Bump.com, the name means “rainbow”.

It’s a Greek name and can also mean “flower” and “pigments of the eye”.

The talk show host announced his wife was pregnant in September. They already share son Oliver together, who was born in 2020.

Broadcaster Jeremy, who has previously endured treatment for testicular cancer in 2012, told The Sun at the time: “We’re over the moon as our family is complete.”

‘I’ve only got one testicle’

Media personality Jeremy, who married former nanny to his kids Victoria in 2021, joked to the tabloid: “Vic says I need to set up a side business by bottling it because I’m 58 and I’ve only got one testicle. But everyone knows that anyway.”

The other kids are really happy, although my eldest Harriet thinks I need sectioning.

The ex daytime TV presenter, also a grandfather, added: “The other kids are really happy, although my eldest Harriet thinks I need sectioning. I personally think it’s my late parents having a laugh from up above, to be honest.”
