Alex Jones shares first snap of newborn son - but there's no name yet: 'My new obsession'
THE ONE SHOW host Alex Jones has posted the first picture of her newbown baby boy to Instagram yesterday.
The 39-year-old shared a black and white snap of her little boy's tiny hand holding her finger along with the caption: "My new obsession."
The Welsh TV presenter welcomed her first child with her husband Charlie Thomson just three weeks after she went on maternity leave from the BBC evening series.
She announced the news live on air, calling in to tell co-presenters Matt Baker and Angela Scanlon about the exciting arrival.
Alex said: "Well I do have some news! Our beautiful, healthy little baby boy has been born. We're absolutely delighted and completely in love with him. It is the most wonderful feeling."
She revealed that the birth had been "very straightforward and lovely" and said that she and her spouse were blissfully happy with their new arrival.
"The last four days have been heaven, we have been in this bubble the three of us, it's just been the best time," she said.
She even asked viewers for help naming their new baby boy, saying: "We're a bit behind on the whole name thing, because we didn't know if he'd be a boy or a girl. We thought when we see him we'll know what he looks like.

"So, maybe some help? Everything we ask of [the viewers], they come up with the goods!"
The couple announced their pregnancy in September last year when Alex took to Twitter saying: "Charlie and I are very happy to confirm that we're expecting a baby in the new year. Feel so lucky that we're about to become parents."
Alex had previously opened up about her fertility worries after undergoing an ultrasound scan and blood test while filming her BBC Documentary, The Truth About Fertility.
