Calvin Harris and Vick Hope welcome son into the world
The Feel So Close hitmaker and his wife Vick Hope welcomed their son Micah into the world two weeks ago and the DJ has praised his spouse as a "superhero" after being by her side throughout the water birth.
Sharing a selection of photos from Micah's birth, including a graphic shot of the placenta and it subsequently being turned into capsules of powder, Calvin wrote on Instagram: "20th of July our boy arrived. Micah is here! My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah."
Vick reshared Calvin's photo of himself and Micah on her own Instagram Story and wrote: "My boys."
The BBC Radio 1 presenter confirmed her pregnancy on her radio show in May.
She said: "I should probably also say this is my final week before I go on maternity leave."
Co-host Jamie Laing replied: "You're an amazing friend, an amazing person, and you're just going to be an amazing mum."
Calvin, 41, and Vick, 35, got married in an outdoor ceremony at Hulne Priory in Alnwick, Northumberland, in September 2023.
After their vows, guests including 'Big Brother's AJ Odudu and DJs Vernon Kay, Scott Mills and Jordan North were treated to a Glastonbury-style reception that included a live performance from Nile Rodgers and Chic, who flew in from the US especially for the celebrations.
According to The Sun newspaper, Calvin told Vick during their vows: 'I promise to be your teammate, best friend and companion for life'.
In return, his bride said: 'The pure, unadulterated euphoria I was seeking when we met? I found it instantly in you.
'I promise to keep us laughing together and to keep us meditating on and glowing in it every day for the rest of our lives'.
During the reception, teepees were set up for guests to relax, and a variety of food trucks offered burgers, pizzas, and Nigerian dishes.
Nile kicked off his set with Luther Vandross' 'Never Too Much' before playing hits by Madonna, David Bowie, Beyonce and Pharrell Williams and ending on his own song, 'Good Times'. Revellers then enjoyed a 10-minute firework display and there were 80 tents set up for them to camp on site overnight.
A source said: 'Calvin and Vick's wedding was a day none of their guests will ever forget.'

Ozzy Osbourne filed to trademark Prince of Darkness before death
Ozzy Osbourne tried to trademark his Prince of Darkness nickname before he died. The 76-year-old rocker passed away at his home in England on July 22, just weeks after his final Black Sabbath gig, and he filed documents to trademark his nickname on June 13. According to The Sun newspaper, his UK-based firm Monowise sent the application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office for 'entertainment services, namely providing non-downloadable pre-recorded music via a website'. The company also sought trademark protection to sell clothes, games and accessories. A ruling has yet to be made, although a similar claim was passed previously in the UK. Meanwhile, it has been revealed that tributes left for Ozzy in his home city of Birmingham are to be taken down and given to his family. Fans had flocked to the city to pay their respects to Ozzy as flowers, keepsake items and handwritten notes were left at Black Sabbath Bridge - a spot that marks the Paranoid band's formation. The council said that the tributes will be preserved at a secure location before being passed on to Ozzy's loved ones. Ozzy's family viewed the tributes during his funeral procession in the city and said they were "deeply moved" by the affection the public had for the Prince of Darkness - who had played his final gig with Black Sabbath at Birmingham's Villa Park stadium just 17 days prior to his death. A statement read: "We are deeply moved by the heartfelt tributes that have been placed at the Black Sabbath Bridge and at the Black Sabbath mural on Navigation Street in recent days. "These expressions of remembrance reflect the profound impact that Ozzy had on the city and its people, as well as fans from around the world - BIRMINGHAM FOREVER!" Lord Mayor of Birmingham Zafar Iqbal said: "We understand how important it is for the community to have a space to grieve and celebrate Ozzy's legacy. "We know fans will continue to pay their respects at the Black Sabbath Bridge and the mural on Navigation Street, as well as visiting the Ozzy exhibition."

'Then afterwards I'm fine because my body's already at a certain kind of level. But yeah, there's like no drinking. Can't have hot sauce. 'It's like rehearsals, no drinking, working out, just back-to-back preparing for all the shows that's come. Also, I haven't like done a proper tour show for a year so I gotta get my stamina back up before I go into festivals. 'So, it's just running, dancing, singing, all at the same time, to make sure I can hack it once the adrenaline hits as well. 'I gotta make sure that while we're doing new dance moves that a certain move isn't gonna make my voice shake.' Due has also shared how she likes to change up her fitness routine.

He told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: 'I would love to go back. You know what Glastonbury means to any artist. 'When I performed on the Pyramid Stage, it was one of the most iconic moments for me. "I could see that there were so many people from so many different walks of life who'd come to see a myriad of different artists. 'I'd never seen so many people and I thought that is what it is normally like. 'People were like, 'No, Craig, the crowd went over the bank at the back and that is huge.' It was just amazing.' Meanwhile, Craig is preparing for the release of his upcoming ninth album Commitment, 25 years after he dropped his first record Born To Do It. He said: 'Creating Commitment was in a lot of respects very similar to Born To Do It. 'It didn't feel like I was under this pressure to deliver. It felt really relaxed and cathartic. 'I was listening to the music I grew up listening to, like when I made the first album. "It got me into a vibe and then I'd go in the studio until 4am. 'I was just loving it, having so much fun. 'You start to get back to why I originally made music. It's crazy when it's the ninth album in. 'To have a career spanning 25 years, I'm just really grateful, it's a crazy journey we're on.'
