Tarek, 41, and Heather, 35, introduced their new addition — their first child together — with a faceless photo of the sleeping baby, wrapped up in the new parents’ hands.
“Our baby is here 1.31.23,” they wrote in a joint statement. “Mom and baby are happy, healthy, tired but doing well. Our hearts are so happy.”
Anstead previously wished the couple well when they announced the pregnancy exclusively to PEOPLE in July. “Huge congratulations to you two! Thrilled to you all! X,” she wrote at the time in a similar comment.

The British TV personality told PEOPLE in 2021 that he’s “a big believer in modern families,” explaining that he still considers Tarek’s (Taylor, 12, and Brayden, 7) older children with their mutual ex Hall, 39, as her stepchildren.
“I think it’s amazing how generations evolve to fit the current times,” she said. “And right now, we live in an age where blended families are common, and you ultimately have to have healthy relationships with all of this extended family.”

“And by default, I inherited extended family [in Tarek and Heather]. To treat them any other way would be dishonorable. I’m really proud of how we all handle this modern blend,” added Anstead.
He and Hall, who finalized their divorce in June 2021 after two and a half years of marriage, share 3-year-old son Hudson London. Anstead is also the father of daughter Amelie and son Archie, whom he shares with his first wife Louise.
