Vanessa Feltz ecstatic to become a first time grandma
Vanessa Feltz was ecstatic to become a grandma for the first time on Monday night when her daughter Allegra gave birth to an over 8lb baby boy. The deliriously happy grandma proudly tweeted a photo of her newly born grandson saying “We are a grandparent.”
The 51 year old BBC Radio presenter arrived at Broadcasting House on Tuesday morning baring large black and white photographs of the new addition to show off to the awaiting photographers. The former Strictly Come Dancing star, proceeded to dedicate her BBC London radio show to the joys of being a grandparent. Feltz’s eldest daughter Allegra 27 and her son in law Dan are said to be tired but extremely happy.
First time aunt Saskia Feltz told the Jewish News: “He’s the most perfect thing ever created. He passed all his tests with flying colours.” She confirmed he will be having a bris next week with his name revealed then.
