Radio host and television personality Fifi Box has given birth to her second child, a daughter named Daisy Belle Box.
Box announced the happy news on her FOX FM breakfast show this morning, calling in to talk to co-hosts Brendan Fevola and Byron Cooke, and former Gogglebox star Yvie Jones, who is replacing Box while she’s on maternity leave.
Box teared up as she spoke about the experience saying she was “really emotional … I’ve had a baby!”
She said on air, “We’ve had a beautiful girl, and she’s just absolute heaven. Trixie and I are just deliriously, hopelessly in love with her,
Box’s first daughter Trixie, 6, is shared with her former partner and ironman Grant Kenny. The 42-year-old chose to fall pregnant for the second time with the help of IVF and an anonymous sperm donor.
“She’s so good, she’s absolutely perfect,” Box said about her newborn.
“She came out of my stomach literally screaming – she cried before she even came out. She’s got this thick thatch of hair … she’s just heaven, she’s such a little angel.”
The mother-of-two shared that her eldest couldn’t be happier with the new addition to the family, as she’s currently obsessed with her younger sister.
“[Daisy] came in the world yesterday morning at about 8:30am, and I didn’t get to hold her again until about midday. Trixie held her for four hours and wouldn’t let her go,” she admitted.
She also gives Trixie credit for naming her newborn Daisy.
“I never had a say in the name. Daisy was on my list, but Trixie decided when she found out I was going to have a baby that it’d be called Daisy. I just let it go – then I realised that for seven months she’s been calling her little sister Daisy, and there’s no going back then.
“She’s named her little sister, which is really special.”
