The new dad had been suffering from sympathy pains and cravings.

But Ben insisted beforehand he needed to “man up” for the birth.

He said of the impending delivery: “It has shocked me, the amount that the emotions changed.”

Turning to Amy he added: “You’ve turned me into a right softie.

“I can’t even watch telly now without crying.

“I just feel like I’ve got to be strong for her, so I need to man up a bit, for sure.”
