BBC Presenter Alex Jones Welcomes Second Child

BBC presenter Alex Jones has announced the birth of her second child, a baby boy named Kit. The One Show host, 42, and her husband Charlie Thomson welcomed their son last Monday, weighing 7lbs 3oz.

Jones, from Ammanford in Carmarthenshire, said she is “besotted” with the new arrival. “We are now a family of four. People said it was going to be busy with two [children] and they weren’t joking,” she remarked.

The couple’s first son, Edward, who is two years old, has taken to his new role as a big brother. Jones noted, “I was really worried about introducing him to Teddy but he has taken to being a big brother like a duck to water. He’s really gentle with him.”

However, there is a minor confusion regarding the baby’s name. Jones added, “But he thinks we’re naming him Thomas after Thomas the Tank Engine so breaking the news that he’s not is going to be tricky.”
