EXCLUSIVE: Ant McPartlin is being supported by Declan Donnelly - and his kids - as the two families plan playdates and summer holidays together, a source tells OK!
As Ant McPartlin embraces life as a devoted new dad to baby Wilder, he’s relying on best pal Declan Donnelly for support - and the pair are already planning play dates!
The new dad and stepdad - who wrote, “Baby is beautiful, Mummy’s a legend, Sisters are over the moon. Dad’s a mess!” alongside the gorgeous black-and-white photo of him and Wilder - has already reportedly given Dec, also 48, the important role of godfather to his son, cementing their bond even further.
Dec, who described Ant in his best man’s speech at his 2021 wedding to Anne-Marie as the “best friend a man could have”, has two children with his wife Ali Astall, a four-year-old daughter called Isla and little flame-haired Jack, who turns two in July. “Also, Dec’s little girl Isla loves babies and is very pleased there is another baby around. They’re planning lots of playdates and family holidays – they’re all hoping to spend most of the summer in Portugal as they always do and are all excited for Wilder’s first holiday.
He held the I’m A Celebrity fort for that year’s series, after Ant announced “having spoken to Dec and ITV, I have made the decision to take the rest of the year off.” While it might have broken some friendships, theirs emerged out the other side largely unscathed, and for the last few years, they’ve been back at the top on the likes of Britain's Got Talent and Saturday Night Takeaway.
