The comedian took to his Facebook early on Monday morning to tell his followers that he was ‘Well knackered,’ along with a photo of him cuddled up with his newborn.

Sporting bloodshot eyes, dark circles and dishevelled hair, Jason’s evident tiredness is something we’re sure all new parents can empathise with.

Manford welcomed his fifth child (and first with girlfriend Lucy Dyke) on Thursday 15 January, after a gruelling 55 hour labour for his partner.

Announcing the birth on his Facebook page, Jason wrote: ‘What a week! After a worrying few days at St mary’s Hospital in Manchester, I would like to welcome Arnie Van Damme Sergio Yaya Barry Bat-Manford into this world.’

‘A beautiful 7 pound 10 girl! Mum & baby doing very well!’

Manford went onto thank the staff at the Manchester hospital for looking after his family.

A spokesperson for the comedian has since confirmed that mum Lucy and the couple’s new arrival are doing well.
