The X Factor: Celebrity winner, who has appeared on shows including The Only Way Is Essex (Towie), shared a video to Instagram confirming her son was born on Monday weighing 9.2 pounds. The couple, who are living in Germany as Burke plays for football team SV Werder Bremen, have named their newborn Landon Henry Burke.
The video featured moments after the baby was delivered and the couple cradling the newborn in the hospital, as well as him feeding. In one clip, McKenna is holding the baby, which Burke described as a “special moment”. A host of celebrities offered their congratulations including former Towie stars Lauren Pope and Georgia Kousoulou.
