EMMERDALE’s Danny Miller has revealed his newborn son’s name just days before he enters the I’m A Celebrity castle.
Danny, 30, become a dad after his fiancée Steph Jones gave birth to their first child.
The couple have named their adorable baby boy Albert.
The actor, best known for playing Aaron Dingle on the ITV soap, has now entered quarantine to ensure he’s Covid safe in the I’m A Celebrity castle.
He was picked up before sunrise in a chauffeur-driven vehicle to try and enter quarantine on Friday.
Steph was seen giving him a final kiss as he went into a shop to get his last few treats before a diet of rice and beans.
Last month he shared a snap of his partner holding their baby’s hand as he revealed Steph had given birth last week.
He wrote: “I was lucky enough to find someone who shines bright enough to lead me out of the dark, but I never imagined to be lead to the brightest place imaginable.”
The couple, who announced they were expecting in February after a year of IVF treatment, found out the sex of their child when Steph gave birth.
Danny previously admitted he was “nervous” about becoming a dad for the first time.
He said he was not a “solid-stomached” person and worried he wouldn’t cope.
He told OK! Magazine of their birthing plan: “Yeah, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous, I think it’s good nerves, though.
“But sometimes I do get a bit like. ‘Oh God, what if I do this wrong?’ I’m nervous about that but I think to learn and to grow, you’ve got to learn on the job.”
Danny joked that he can get “quite nauseous” in adrenaline-pumped situations, as he admitted he’d have to “concentrate on Steph” to get through.
“I get quite nauseous in those situations, but I’m hoping the adrenaline takes over and makes me get a hold of myself and realise what I’m there for,” he said.
“Hopefully I’ll concentrate on Steph rather than worry about what’s going on around me.’”
Danny will complete a trio of actors from Britain’s most-watched soaps in the castle going into I’m A Celeb.
He will be joining Simon Gregson, 47 — Coronation Street’s Steve McDonald — and Adam Woodyatt, 53, who plays Ian Beale in EastEnders.
