RAY Quinn’s fiance Emily Ashleigh given birth, becoming him a father for the second time.
The happy couple revealed the news today along with a number of heartwarming pictures after welcoming a little girl earlier this month.
The Hollyoaks star, 34, announced her name, telling fans: “Summer Reign Quinn ☀️👑 04.09.2022
“Indulging in every special moment with Our beautiful, precious little baby GIRL! 💘.”
Ray is already dad to a little boy called Harry from his marriage to Emma Stephens, which ended in 2015.
Dancing On Ice star Ray got engaged to school teacher Emily in 2020 after meeting and falling in love in bar in 2017.
Early this year, they made their pregnancy announcement.
Ray gained notoriety in 2006 after losing to Leona Lewis in the third season of The X Factor.
Ray has changed so much since he was the young singing prospect who went on to appear in numerous more reality shows that he is almost identifiable today.
Since then, Ray has competed in Dancing on Ice twice and won both times, once in 2009 and once in 2014 for the All Star series.
Ray joined the Hollyoaks cast in 2018, playing right-wing extremist Jonny Baxter, before departing a year later.
He has since abandoned stardom in favour of a more stable source of income.
Ray revealed that he was a courier for the delivery company Hermes when the epidemic struck.
He started working for the family carpet-fitting company early this year, joining brothers Darren and Robin.
When Ray’s father, who died of cancer in 2020, was a child, he taught Ray’s brothers how to be carpet fitters.
