Seann Walsh is seen for the first time in public with his newborn Casper and partner Grace Adderley - after keeping pregnancy a secret
Seann Walsh was seen for the first time in public with his newborn son Casper and partner Grace Adderley as they enjoyed the sunshine in London on Monday.
The comedian, 39, announced the birth of his second child last month, after keeping his partner's pregnancy a secret.
The doting father-of-two looked happier than ever as he walked around Kensington with Grace.
Grace looked radiant and glowing as she kept Casper close to her chest in a baby sling while he slept peacefully.
Seann, who wore a casual grey T-shirt and navy jeans for the outing, grabbed a coffee to aid the tiredness.
The mother-of-two looked incredible in light blue jeans and a loose-fitting T-shirt as she giggled with Seann on their walk.

Revealing the shock baby arrival last month, he posted a picture on his Instagram story of his daughter Wylda, two, who he shares with Grace.
Alongside the picture of the little one with what looks like yoghurt on her head, he quipped: 'My first five minutes being left alone with Wylda and our newborn Casper. S*** just got real.'
He then posted another picture, this time holding baby Casper, with Wylda sat in a high chair as the family ate lunch on a bench outside.
Seann jokingly wrote: 'Gonna need a bigger boat'.
Their baby news no doubt came as a surprise to fans as Seann and Grace never shared the news they were expecting.
Seann first became a father in February 2023 after the couple welcomed daughter Wylda, and shared the happy news to Instagram.
Taking to his stories, he shared a clip of himself as he sat in the hospital after the birth, saying: 'Grace has had our baby and I'm sat here in the very relaxing postnatal department, and the staff have been great.
'The nurses have been coming up to me all morning and congratulating me.'

He then shared a post, which read: 'Oh btw. I passed out during the birth. Of course I did. The nurse's response... "Men." Fair.'
The former Strictly Come Dancing revealed in October 2022 that he and his dance teacher girlfriend were having a baby.
Speaking to a friend during an Instagram Live session at the time, Seann told a friend: 'I'm having a child.'
Seann was then asked by the friend: 'So you're gonna be a dad?', before replying 'yeah' - with the unnamed man responding: 'That's worrying.'
The funnyman then told his followers: 'Unbelievable. Everyone else has been really nice, that's the worst response yet.'
Seann and Grace have been dating since 2019, but largely keep their relationship out of the spotlight.
Apart from being on I'm A Celebrity, Seann hit headlines during his 2018 stint in Strictly Come Dancing when he was caught kissing his married dance partner Katya Jones on his then-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries' birthday.
Seann previously confessed he still feels 'traumatised from his time on Strictly Come Dancing.
In April 2024, the stand-up explained on Russell Howard's Wonderbox podcast that he can't dance anymore and if he ever sees a 'Strictly No Parking' zone while out driving, the bad memories come flooding back.
He said: 'I do not dance. What it is more actually is when you turn up to any car park or something, and it says, 'Strictly No Parking'. I still just go, 'Arghh', every time I see it.
'I can hear the word — like a dog hearing something — I can just hear the word strictly and I still go, 'Arghh!'
He went on to explain that he went back to doing comedy shows far too soon after the scandal erupted and that he was often heckled on stage after spiralling into depression.
Seann said he 'looked unwell, thin and gaunt' while performing during that time and that some audiences would just leave his shows because of it.
He said on the podcast: 'I went back too soon — that's for sure. You've got to kind of let audiences, or the public, almost let them get over it. But I wanted to kind of fight it.
'I didn't want this thing that was happening to my life to take away the only thing that I had.
'I would have looked unwell. I was extremely thin and gaunt. It was so difficult. The audiences didn't know how to feel. They'd get up, they'd leave. Sometimes they'd tell me that they were appalled by me.'

Dawn French apologises after being accused of underplaying October 7 attacks
British comedian and actress Dawn French has issued a public apology after a social media video she posted about the conflict in Gaza and Israel drew widespread criticism. The 67-year-old Vicar of Dibley star shared the video on X (formerly Twitter), using a baby-like voice to deliver a satirical monologue critiquing what she described as the justifications used by those supporting Israel's continued military campaign in Gaza. 'Complicated, no, but nuanced. But [the] bottom line is no,' she says in the video, before launching into a series of exaggerated, childlike impressions mimicking pro-Israel arguments. 'Yeah, but you know they did a bad thing to us… and we want that land… and we have history… Those people aren't really even people, are they?' Each segment is followed by French returning to her natural voice to declare: 'No.' The video, which has since been deleted, quickly amassed over 4.7million views and sparked a fierce backlash among some. Critics accused French of trivialising the October 7 Hamas attacks, in which over 1,200 Israelis were killed and hundreds taken hostage. Some viewers said her tone appeared to mock victims rather than leaders. In response to the outcry, French posted a lengthy apology on Instagram on Saturday, acknowledging that her attempt at satire had fallen short of the mark. 'I clumsily used a mocking tone,' she wrote. 'My intention was NEVER to mock, or dismiss, or diminish the horror of what happened on 7 October 2023 and what continues to unfold from that brutal, unthinkable, unforgivable savage [attack].' French said her real aim had been to 'mock and point the finger of shame at the behaviour of the cruel leaders on ALL sides of this attricious [sic] war,' but admitted that her message had come across as one-sided. 'I'm particularly sorry that my disgust at Hamas didn't figure. It appeared one-sided and that is wrong,' she said. She added that she had been motivated by a growing sense of helplessness and a desire to speak out against the escalating humanitarian crisis, particularly the suffering of children in Gaza. More Trending 'The images of starving and wounded children have haunted me day and night,' she wrote. 'History has taught us never to stand by and allow this kind of inhumane violence to be wrought on anyone, especially innocent children.' 'I hope you will understand my intention was not to offend, but clearly I have. For which I am sorry and I have removed the video.' French's apology has prompted mixed responses online, with some praising her for addressing the issue directly and others continuing to criticise the original post.

Tom Jones reveals tragic message his wife gave to him just before she died
Tom Jones reveals tragic message his wife gave to him just before she died To mark his 85th birthday, Tom Jones has released a statement on his Instagram social media feed as he celebrates the major milestone Tom Jones has spoken about the message his wife gave him just before she died in 2016 (Image: Getty ) Sir Tom Jones shared the tragic message his wife gave him just before she died. The legendary singer was married to Melinda "Linda" Trenchard for 59 years between 1957 and 2016 before she passed away from cancer. Tom, who turns 85 today, once spoke about advice his wife gave him, and how his reaction to her death has also now informed the guidance he gives to contemporary artists too. Speaking on the BBC show Sounds of the 60s with Tony Blackburn, he said: 'When my wife knew that she had terminal cancer, I was with her for the last 10 days in hospital in the room with her. She said, 'Look I gotta leave, but you don't fall with me. I'm going down, I know, there's nothing I can do about it but don't you do that.' 'She told me, 'Don't you fall with me, you've got to keep going, you've got to get on stage. You've still got songs to sing and think of me when you do it'.' Tom lost his dear wife to cancer in 2016 Tom added that Melinda also instructed him to keep laughing when he thought about her as he considered retirement from music after she died. Article continues below He explained: 'She loved jokes and I used to make her laugh a lot so. Now, she gives me strength as when she passed away I thought I was gonna crumble. 'I almost packed it in. I didn't think I could sing anymore because you can't get too emotional sing when you sing because your voice won't come out. 'This is what I say to singers now, you take the emotion and then you work it into the song, get it through, but don't get too involved with it because then you'll cry and you won't be able to sing.' Sir Tom Jones turns 85 this year (Image: Getty ) To mark his 85th birthday, Tom said in a statement on his Instagram: 'I'm celebrating my 85th birthday this Saturday! and am thrilled to be sharing a very special concert performance - 'Live on Soundstage 2017' for the first time on my YouTube channel. 'Join me at 6pm (18:00 BST) for fun, live music and the fantastic Alison Krauss as my musical guest. See you then!' Article continues below Alongside appearing on the BBC with Tony Blackburn, Tom is also due to appear in a BBC Arts show titled In My Own Words, reports GB News. In a statement following the news, the Sex Bomb performer said: 'Taking the time to look back at some of the extraordinary things that have happened in my life for In My Own Words has been really enjoyable and thought-provoking. "Some of the archive I'd not seen before, and watching snippets of those past times, places, styles, and struggles brought home how lucky I am. "Being able to spend the day in the first house I ever owned brought back so many memories… I hope everyone enjoys watching it as much as I did making it!"

Creamfields 2025: The highest paid DJs on Spotify in 2025; are any performing this year?
While metal fans are readying themselves for Download Festival 2025 next week, clubbers old and new are eagerly awaiting the day Creamfields 2025 finally arrives. As one of the biggest dance music festivals in the world, Creamfields brings together electronic music's finest, ranging from names that have frequented the UK Top 40 to up-and-coming artists the festival looks to champion. But with such a sheer wealth of DJ talent out there, is there one who can truly call themselves King or Queen of streaming services? Or, in this case, who is sitting atop the Spotify heap earning the most from UK fans in 2025? Spin Genie took a look at some of the figures as part of their roundup of the most influential DJs of 2025 to find that answer and, equally important, how many of the top ten are set to perform at Creamfields this year? Methodology The ranking of DJs was compiled by first generating an artist seed list from ChartMasters and DJMag . For each artist, data was then collected on average monthly listens from Spotify, total Google searches and their percentage change (comparing April 2023-March 2024 with April 2024-March 2025) via Google Keyword Planner , and the number of news articles from Google Search News (using alternate terms for ambiguous names). Additionally, follower counts were obtained from each artist's verified Instagram and TikTok accounts. Finally, all collected data points were used to create a normalised score out of ten, resulting in a ranking for both male and female artists. 1 . Robin Schulz - £64,846 The German DJ and producer, Robin Schulz, is a master of melodic house, whose consistent global appeal is underscored by an impressive estimated market value of £64,846, making him a highly valuable act on the international electronic music circuit. |Photo Sales 2 .
