In his announcement, Shane wrote: 'Welcome to this crazy world my son. Cruz-Carter was born on 13th November at 3am weighing 6lb 6 ounces. Words can’t express the love I have for you already. I literally can’t stop staring at you.' He also praised his girlfriend Kimberley, calling her 'the strongest, bravest woman I know.'
