Sinead shared a picture of her new arrival on social media

RTE star Sinead Kennedy has announced the birth of her second baby.

The Winning Streak presenter, who is married to Navy officer Conor Kirwan, revealed over the weekend she has given birth to a baby boy, named Theo.

Sinead said her two-year-old daughter, Indie, was especially delighted with the new arrival.

Sharing a post of her newborn son in a striped baby grow as she held a wooden plaque that read “Hello world”, she wrote: “Oh boy. We’ve been in a love bubble for the last while. Our little baba has arrived safe and sound.

“Theo Will Kirwan has made our family complete. We’re all in love with the new man in our lives – Indie especially is chuffed with her little brother.

“We could not be more proud, grateful and happy. Thank you so very much to everyone who helped to ensure Theo’s safe arrival and for looking after us so well whilst in CUMH.

“Back to the newborn snuggles I go x,” she added.

Sinead revealed that she was expecting baby number two in August, as she posed for Irish Country Magazine.

She said at the time: “Conor, Indie and I are thrilled that another little person will be joining our crew in November.

“I should have thanked the baby for my fuller lips! Definitely my favourite feature of pregnancy.”

Sinead is spending her maternity leave in Brussels where Conor has been stationed for the past few years.

She told RSVP: “It means that Conor is not flying over and back, we’re not exhausted, and we can have proper family quality time together.”
