WESTLIFE star Kian Egan and wife Jodi Albert were celebrating last night after Albert gave birth two weeks early to a son in Sligo General Hospital.
Egan announced the news on Twitter last night: “Out little baby boy “Koa” was born today at 6.10 pm. Jodi Albert is an amazing woman. Love them both so much. Both doing amazing, so proud. X”
Egan had been on red alert for the arrival in recent weeks, and had a private jet waiting in London after Westlife’s X Factor performance to whisk him back to Sligo that night.
Egan recently spoke of his excitement about becoming a first time dad on the Late Late Show. “I honestly can’t wait for Jodi to give birth. I want to do everything – nappies, feeds, whatever Jodi needs.”
The couple wed in Barbados in 2009 after a four year romance. Egan revealed the name Koa is a traditional Hawaiian name, and means brave and fearless.
