The couples celeb pals, including Danielle O'Hara, Alex Gerrard, Ed Sheeran and Apprentice star Lord Sugar, sent messages of congratulations after seeing the news on Twitter.

Twitter addict Coleen seems to have taken labour in her stride, tweeting birthday wishes to a friend less than two hours before Klay was born!

TV-star-turned-fashion-designer Coleen revealed over the weekend her due date had been and gone and was rumoured to have been addmitted to hospital on Saturday.

The name Klay is an unusual spelling of the American name Clay, which is said to mean 'mortal', and is a shortened form of the name Clayton.

There are a barrage of American baseball players named Clay, so maybe Wayne is hoping his new son will follow in their footsteps, or at least inherit his flare for football.

Or, is it that Coleen and Wayne have been inspired by the Kardashian clan and are building their own brood with names beginning with 'K'?

Either way, big congratulations are in order!

What do you think of the name Klay?
