ITV presenter Joel Dommett and his wife, Hannah Cooper, have announced the arrival of their second child – and his name is about as celebrity baby name as they come.
The Masked Singer host, 40, and model, whom he married in 2019, are already proud parents to son Wilde, who was born in September 2023.
And now their little family has grown, as they shared today that baby number two came a bit later than planned – almost two weeks past Hannah’s due date.
Taking to Instagram, the couple shared a joint post of a black-and-white snap of their newborn’s tiny hand.
Revealing his quirky moniker, Hannah wrote: ‘Dutch Cooper-Dommett 🤍🍼🫧✨
‘Super late like his Father, super long like his Mother.’

They were quickly inundated with congratulatory messages, including from model Roxy Horner, who recently married comedian Jack Whitehall.
‘Congratulations guys ❤️😍’, she wrote.
‘What a name! Congratulations ❤️’, commented The Traitors star Paul Gorton, with Gaby Roslin echoing that it’s the ‘coolest name ever’.
‘Love love love ALL THE WAY xxxxx we are so happy for ALL OF YOU 🎉🥰🤗’, added Davina McCall.
‘Go Team !!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️’, declared Cat Deeley.
Fans also praised the ‘gorgeous’ name they chose as they wished the new parents well.

‘Dutch’ could, in fact, be an affectionate nod to Hannah’s heritage, as she was born in Holland.
Joel and Hannah announced her second pregnancy last November, writing alongside some sweet bump pics that it was ‘hard to keep secrets with a toddler around’, as Wilde would tell people, ‘Baby in mumma tummy’.
Olly Murs, Emily Atack, Katherine Ryan, and Pixie Lott were among celebrity pals congratulating them on their news.
Speaking just weeks ago in an interview with The Mirror, the pair, who co-host the Never Have I Ever podcast, declared that Hannah was ‘not leaving London’ as she was anticipating giving birth ‘any day’.
‘Joel and I were supposed to go on a babymoon last week and ended up… freaking out and staying home!’, she quipped.
Hannah added that her pregnancy had been a ‘whirlwind of emotions’, particularly as she grappled with the future ‘mum guilt’ of looking after two little ones.

The influencer compared the past nine months to an ‘Olympic sport’ and said naps were ‘utter luxuries’ as she continued running around after an energetic toddler while pregnant with his little brother.
She added sweetly that she’s ‘lucked out’ having entertainer Joel, who rose to fame as an actor with appearances in TV shows including Skins and Casualty before becoming a presenter and comedian, as her partner. She joked that he sometimes enjoys playing more than their firstborn.
Having tied the knot in an intimate beach wedding in Mykonos (officiated by comedian Iain Stirling), the lovebirds were also asked if they had plans to renew their vows at any point.
‘Actually, this December we’ve been together 10 years, married seven. It’s the seven-year itch, and we’re having a second child, so let’s see how it goes!’, Hannah, who was scouted by a modelling agent at 16, teased.
Joel and Hannah first connected in 2016 following his stint in the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! jungle, where he finished second before becoming the host of its spin-off show, Unpacked, the year after.
Hannah reached out via social media at the time, drunkenly sliding into his DMs with a heart-eyes cat emoji.
Joel was then ‘blown away’ by how funny she was on their first date, and they got engaged in December 2017 after one year together, buying their first house in May 2019.
The rest, as they say, is history.
