Claire Cooper and Emmett J Scanlan have named their son Ocean-Torin Scanlan.

Emmett, 41 – who also has a daughter, Kayla, from a previous relationship – took to Twitter and Instagram to share a sweet black-and-white snap of the newborn and wrote: "Hey world, meet my world. Our world. Meet Ocean-Torin Scanlan."

And his and Claire’s celebrity pals were quick to offer their congratulations.

Eoin Macken wrote: "He already looks suspiciously handsome and chill."

Keith Duffy – whose son Jay played Emmett’s son on ‘Hollyoaks’ – quipped: "Congratulations what great news. Hope @jayduffy doesn’t get jealous."

Roma Downey posted: "Baby ocean is gorgeous , welcome to the world little one," Anna Friel wrote, "Soooooo beautiful" and ‘Derry Girls’ writer Lisa McGee said: "Very very very cute."

Meanwhile, Claire, 39, recently admitted she still has to "pinch herself" that she is a mum.

She wrote on Instagram: "And just like that I became a mamily. After 2 trips to the hospital, 40 hrs of labour & an emergency C section our little boy arrived

"So grateful to the entire team who supported us in all our choices at #arroweparkhospital before, during & after – it certainly got complicated in moments but then he’s a wee Scanlan how are we surprised?! the #NHS team led us consistently with care & kindness & made us feel so safe & protected – thank you!!

"Finally a huge thank you to our Doula Jemma @the_hypnobirthing_doula_ who kept us so strong throughout, talked endlessly with me, always giving us the opportunity to discuss all our options & being the support we so needed

"Now I must go pinch myself – we made a tiny human (sic)"

The couple met on ‘Hollyoaks’ with Claire starring as Jacqui McQueen from 2006 to 2013, while Emmett appeared as Brendan Brady from 2010 to 2013.
