‘We’re utterly in love’: H from Steps is now a dad to TWIN baby boys

Congrats are in order for one of our fave Nineties popstars today, as H from Steps has become a first-time dad.

H, who these days goes by his full name of Ian H Watkins, welcomed twin sons in the early hours of yesterday morning.

The new arrivals were born via a surrogate, with Ian and his partner Craig taking to social media to share their delight – and a first picture.

"We are DADS! We are totally & utterly in Love! #Twins" Ian wrote on Twitter, alongside a snap of two hospital bracelets labelled "Baby 'A' Boy" and "Baby 'B' Boy."

A, B, C and H? Here's hoping the new dads come up with something a little more lengthy than that when deciding their sons' official first names.

The couple first revealed their happy baby news back in December, via an animated YouTube video.

After their first surrogate tragically suffered a miscarriage back in 2012, it's no surprise Ian and Craig waited until the pregnancy was six months along this time around.

Speaking shortly after the miscarriage happened four years ago, Ian said the news had been a huge blow to him and Craig.

"We were thinking of names, and we even planned our first Christmas as a family. We were both ready to be dads, " he told The People.

Huge congrats to Ian and Craig on their very happy ending. We can't wait to see a first family photo…
