Warmest congratulations to Kelly and Dougie for their healthy baby boy, named Freddie Peter Payne!
Kelly Macdonald has given birth to a boy. The 32-year-old star and her husband, Travis bassist Dougie Payne, kept the birth quiet for almost a month before announcing the news on the band’s website.
Freddie Peter Payne was born on March 9, weighing 8lb 11oz.
In an entry in his blog, Dougie, 35, who lives in London with Kelly, wrote: “It is with huge delight and enormous soppy grins that we can tell you we have a wee boy.
“He is blond, blue-eyed, bouncing and beautiful. Mum is doing great and baby is thriving.
“Dad’s mind is blown in the best way possible. Fill your glasses with something fizzy!
“Love and joy.”
Within hours of Dougie’s announcement, more than 100 messages of congratulations from fans to the pair, both from Glasgow, had been posted.
