Peppa Pig becomes a big sister after Mummy Pig gives birth to new baby
Peppa Pig's Mummy Pig has given birth to her latest little piglet. The cartoon character has welcomed her newborn in news revealed on UK daytime show Good Morning Britain. Entertainment reporter Richard Arnold, 55, told how Daddy Pig had informed him of the happy news at 5.30am, shortly before the daytime show hit screens. He then revealed the little one's name was Evie, with the adorable character completing the family. 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.' Last month, the gender of Peppa's mum's unborn piglet was revealed. GMB. At the time, Richard cut live to Mummy Pig revealing that the parent - 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', were expecting another baby this summer. Mummy Pig and Daddy Pig are already parents to Peppa, four, and George, two. Speaking live from Peppatown earlier this year, 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 screen in the autumn. Peppa Pig first aired in 2004 and has since been broadcast in 180 territories - including Australia where it airs on ABC Kids - and translated into 40 languages. Now it's spawned books, toys and even two theme parks, with the global Peppa empire now worth over A$2 billion.
