Diversity's Jordan Banjo and his partner Naomi Courts have welcomed their second child, just fourteen months after they welcomed their first child.
The dad revealed the happy news on social media, alongside a picture of Naomi and their tiny new baby.
In the post, Jordan revealed that they’d already picked a baby name for their bundle of joy already – Mayowa Angel.
He wrote: ‘So yesterday 23.7.2019 at 3.24pm weighing 8 pound 9, our little angel was born❤️! @naomiella21 I cannot put into words the depth of love and respect I have for you, I can never repay the gifts you’ve brought into our lives with our 2 beautiful children.
‘This time the process was so different than it was with Cass but you were so strong and amazing, thank you❤️ So world please say hello to our daughter, Mayowa Angel Banjo! But we call her Mimi and so can you😇’.
Naomi also posted a photo on her own Instagram caption, with her baby girl and Jordan, revealing that Mimi was born via c-section as she was breech throughout the pregnancy.
She wrote: 'Yesterday at 3.24pm, our baby girl Mayowa Angel Banjo made her entrance to the world weighing a very healthy 8.9lb!! She arrived via a planned c section due to being in a breech position throughout my whole pregnancy.
'It was a very different experience physically and mentally to the water birth I had with Cass and I will in time share my birth story with you guys, but for now I’m gunna take a few days to enjoy this moment with our precious baby girl 💗 a quick thank you to @jordbanjo for being my rock throughout this very emotional journey and being the best daddy to both Mimi and Cass ❤️ I love you all so much.'

Their newest arrival came right on time, as just over the weekend the pair were counting down the days until they could meet their baby girl on what was her final week of pregnancy.
Jordan wrote alongside a sweet picture of him kissing Naomi on her forehead: ‘Bumpdate🙌🏾❤️! Final week now, @naomiella21 over 39 weeks and handled everything this crazy month has thrown at us like a boss, so proud you bubb, can’t believe your due date is in less than a week, less than a week until we meet our little girl❤️’.
The pair announced back in January that they were expecting a second child - less than a year after they welcomed their first child Cassius, who was born in May 2018.
Congratulations to the happy family!
