Mummy Pig told Hello! magazine: "We were very lucky – everything went smoothly and in eight, um, 'short' hours of labour Evie was here."
Daddy Pig praised his "amazing" wife and called the arrival of their daughter a "miracle".
He added: "We're very lucky to be able to grow our family."
Mummy Pig quickly cut off any expectations of a fourth baby, saying: "I think we're more than happy with our family of five! We're excited to settle into our new adventure and see where that takes us."
The family's happy news was announced on yesterday's Good Morning Britain by entertainment editor Richard Arnold, 55.
He said: "It brings me great joy to announce she's here.
"It's a beautiful thing like I say Daddy Pig has just shared these pictures with me.
"Named after Mummy Pig's aunt Evie."
Mummy Pig's pregnancy was announced on the same show back in February.
At the time, Mummy Pig - whose job involves doing "very important work" on her computer - and her husband Daddy Pig, who "takes big numbers, transmutes them and calculates their load-bearing tangents", said were expecting another baby this summer.
Peppa Pig and Mummy Pig open up about playing their roles for 10 years
The couple are also parents to Peppa, four, and George, two.
Speaking live from their home in Peppatown, Mummy Pig exclusively revealed: 'Well, I'm excited to share that our family is getting even bigger because... We're having another baby!' as she held up a scan picture to camera for viewers to see.
Showing off her baby bump, she continued: 'I'm due in the summer and we're all so excited…'
Despite this, she added: 'A little overwhelmed at the thought of having three children under five running around, but mostly just completely delighted.'
Asked if she had already shared the news with Peppa and George, Mummy Pig replied: 'Oh yes, we weren't able to keep it a secret for long.
'Peppa knew something was going on, and she's such a curious thing - we had to tell her before she popped!
'They've had the occasional wobble and worry, but they're mostly so excited!
'Every day they ask me how big the baby is, when is it coming, does it like Muddy Puddles and dinosaurs... It never stops!'
Viewers can expect to see the new baby on May 30, in an episode of Peppa Meets The Baby.
PEPPA'S FAMILY HISTORY
Peppa Pig first aired in 2004 and has since been broadcast in 180 territories and translated into 40 languages.
Now it's spawned books, toys and even two theme parks, with the global Peppa empire now worth over £1billion.
Creators Neville Astley and Mark Baker admitted they were initially worried the idea would never get off the ground, and that people at first, were bored of the idea.
Astley explained: "People in the pub would ask us, 'What are you drawing?' We'd say, 'A pig, called Peppa, it's going to be big'.
'They'd lose interest and wander off."
