Today saw Jamie, 37, and Sophie, 31, appear on the show together to discuss their new Disney+ show, Raising Chelsea.

Raising Chelsea will follow the couple as they navigate the difficulties of new parenthood.

Jamie and Sophie welcomed their son, Ziggy, in December. When asked how Ziggy is, Sophie gushed: “He’s heaven. He’s teething at the moment, so no sleep.”

Sophie also added that having Ziggy was “the best thing ever”, and that having him filled a hole “I didn’t know needed to be filled.

“He’s everything.”

Jamie and Sophie share ‘too much information’ on This Morning with Alison and Dermot

As the interview drew to a close, Alison asked Sophie, “Did you eat the placenta as well?” “I did!” Sophie revealed.

“And what is that supposed to do?” Alison asked. “I don’t know,” Sophie confessed. “Make me look younger forever?”

“It’s supposed to be really good for you,” Alison said.

“I put it in little pill form,” Sophie explained. “I sent it off…I put it straight in the freezer in the hospital, and I sent it off and it came back in pill form.

“And then I ate them. They smelled very bad. I thought you blitzed them up in a smoothie, but they put them in pill forms, and you can just swallow,” she said.

“There are benefits, I’ve heard,” Alison said. “I don’t think there is,” Jamie quipped. Turning to Sophie, he then said: “I hope you ate your placenta and not someone else’s.”

“A placenta mixup,” Dermot said. “How would they know?” Jamie asked. “I had a really big placenta,” Sophie said.
