Olly Murs has been separated from his baby girl just hours after announcing her birth.
The X Factor star shared the exciting news that he became a dad for the first time earlier today. He welcomed his daughter Madison with wife Amelia Tank and shared an adorable snap of the couple taking her home. Olly wrote: "Our mini Murs has arrived. Madison we love you so much already x."
However, just hours after sharing his sweet announcement, Olly was back at work and away from his family home. He is currently supporting Take That on their This Life On Tour shows and taking to the stage at their Leeds concert on Wednesday night. Olly posted an update on his Instagram where he thanked his fans for all their support following his announcement.
He admitted: "It has been an incredible few days, little Maddison is here. We are very very just over the moon and just full of love. I just wanted to let everyone know that's coming to the Leeds show tonight for the Take That show, I am here. Yes I am here. It was so horrible to say goodbye to Maddison this morning and Amelia. But the show must go on. I am here tonight."
Olly ended his message by telling fans: "I can't believe I am a dad." The couple have been flooded with congratulations from friends and fans, with Vicky Pattison writing: "Congratulations you guys." While another wrote: "Awww, congratulations to you all, yous will be best parents. Welcome to the world Madison." A third commented: "Oh my god! Big congrats guys I was wrong and guessed boy. What a gorgeous name. Take care @amelia.murs hope you didn't have too much of a hard time. And @ollymurs will Madison be touring with you at the o2 next weekend? xx."
They shared that they were set to be parents in December, just five months after the couple tied the knot. In July they threw a festival-style wedding surrounded by their close friends and family. Olly shared the exciting news of Amelia's pregnancy on Instagram with a photo of him holding an ultrasound picture while his wife proudly displayed her baby bump.
The couple captioned the image: "Baby Murs due 2024." In the snap, hitmaker Olly - who first found fame on The X Factor - could be seen wearing a Christmas jumper which was decorated in snowflakes. The musician was beaming with pride as he pointed at Amelia's blossoming baby bump. Posing for the snap, she wore a pair of blue denim jeans, a white vest top and a cardigan with her jeans unbuttoned to display her bump.
Last year, he spoke about his need to become a dad. "We're ready to have our own little Murs running around. It's so special that we'll be able to take our kids to Osea Island one day and say: 'This is where we got married'," he previously told Hello! Magazine. Olly and Amelia said "I do" on a private island called Osea Island in the Blackwater Estuary, Essex, which only lets visitors in for five hours per day.
