Joe Lycett confirms birth of son with secret girlfriend, family says it's real

Comedian Joe Lycett has confirmed the birth of his son with a secret girlfriend, despite initial speculation that it was a prank. A family source stated that the baby is real and the family is delighted. Lycett announced the news on Instagram last month, sharing a photo of himself with the newborn. He faced skepticism due to his history of pranks but reassured fans in a newsletter that fatherhood is genuine and a "total delight." The identity of the baby's mother remains private, as her job requires her to stay out of the public eye. Lycett has been seen spending time with his family in the Midlands, enjoying his new role as a father.
