Former England footballer Jamie Redknapp has welcomed his first child, a son named Raphael Anders Redknapp, with model Frida Andersson.

Sharing a photo of himself dressed in a grey tracksuit while the newborn slept, Redknapp wrote on Instagram: "Meet Raphael Anders Redknapp, we're so in love, mum is doing so well too.

"We can't thank the amazing doctors and nurses at the Chelsea and Westminster [Hospital] enough. So excited for him to meet my boys."

The Sky Sports pundit, 48, who shares parenting Beau and eldest son Charley with his ex-wife, pop singer Louise Redknapp, is reported to have married Swedish model Andersson last month.

Former Republic of Ireland footballer Robbie Keane - a one-time teammate of Redknapp's at Tottenham Hotspur - was among those to send congratulations online.

Redknapp shared pictures of the couple's "small wedding" on Instagram last month, calling it a "very small intimate wedding with friends and family".
