Jade, Chris' eldest daughter, has given birth
The radio presenter asked his listeners for tips and hints at becoming a granddad, before exclaiming he never thought he would become one so young.
"Over the weekend, while I was on my sick bed my daughter rang to tell me I was going to be a granddad," he told his 9.85 million listeners.
"This now puts me staring straight down the barrel of becoming a granddad at the age of just 48.
"Noah is going to become and uncle as well as little Eli, who is just two, and Tash is going to be a grandma."
Last September the thrice-married breakfast show host walked Jade down the aisle to wed car mechanic boyfriend Callum at a church near his home in Ascot, Berkshire.
The star is married to Natasha and has two young children with her
