Westlife star welcomes third child

Westlife star Shane Filan and his wife Gillian have welcomed their third child, a baby boy.

According to the Irish Independent, the baby was born at 9.30pm on Friday night at Sligo General Hospital.

The baby, who will be named Shane Peter Filan, reportedly weighed 6lbs 9oz.

A friend told the newspaper: "Shane and Gillian are over the moon with their new arrival."

"They're thrilled it's a boy and have decided to call him after his dad, which Shane is chuffed about."

"Both mom and baby are both doing great, although it was a last-minute dash to get to the hospital."

The couple already have a daughter named Nicole and a son named Patrick.
