Steps star Lee Latchford-Evans reveals baby news

On Saturday (May 4) Lee took to his Instagram and confirmed the exciting baby news. He shared a black-and-white picture of him leaving the hospital with his newborn.

He captioned the post: “Here we go again!”

And as expected, plenty of fans and Lee’s Steps co-stars flooded the comments section with well-wishes and support.

Absolutely thrilled for you both

“SO SO SO Happy for you!!! Love Uncle H xx” said bandmate Ian ‘H’ Watkins. Faye Tozer also gushed: “Bursting with joy for you all! Can’t wait to meet little one.”

Meanwhile, one fan penned: “Huge Congratulations to you and Kerry and a little bro for Leo absolutely thrilled for you both.”

And another wrote: “Congratulations to you both! Sending best wishes to you and Kerry on your newest arrival! Congratulations to Leo on becoming a big brother!!”

Lee and Kerry ‘wanted a baby for so long’

Lee and Kerry have been married since 2012 and sadly suffered a miscarriage back in 2018. Kerry-Lucy was 10 weeks pregnant at the time.

“We’ve wanted a baby for so long. We did start thinking, ‘Why isn’t this working for us? What’s wrong with us?’ You doubt each other slightly, but luckily we have a very strong relationship,” Lee told OK Magazine in 2021 about how they felt amid other people’s baby joy.

He added: “We went through a time where all of our friends were pregnant and people were always walking past us with prams and I guess we hated that and had a bit of resentment towards them, which I know we shouldn’t but it was difficult and frustrating.”

Meanwhile on Loose Women in 2021, Kerry-Lucy revealed she took three pregnancy tests to convince Lee it was positive in her first pregnancy.

She said: “I had to do three tests to convince Lee it was positive. The first was a faint line. I told him I think I’m pregnant and he said no.

“I got another one and the line was thick but he didn’t believe it.”

Lee then said: “I didn’t believe it so the next day Kerry did a digital test so I couldn’t argue with that one.”
