Mrs Brown’s Boys star Gary Hollywood has confirmed he and wife Cheyanne have welcomed their second child together.
The Scottish actor, 45, who played Dino on the BBC sitcom, are overjoyed with the birth of son Carter John, four years after they welcomed his older brother Ollie.
Cheyanne sadly suffered a miscarriage last year, discovering the news at the 12-week scan. Gary is now referring to Carter as their ‘rainbow’ baby.
Asked how she felt when she learned she was pregnant, Cheyenne told OK!: ‘It was a mixture of nerves and excitement. After I miscarried, I said that we wouldn’t do it again, but that was just the process of healing.’
The couple didn’t tell any of their friends and family Cheyenne was pregnant for a third time until after her 12-week scan.

She had a very quick labour saying: ‘I went to the bathroom and my water broke, so at 7.40pm, I started pushing. Gary ran out to get something from the car and when he walked back in, Carter was crowning. The labour lasted 20 minutes in total, and I had no epidural, no gas and air, nothing.’
This is Gary’s second child with Cheyenne and his fifth overall as he also has three children from a previous relationship.
Asked about becoming a father to a newborn in his forties, he said: ‘I think I enjoy it more now. In my twenties, I was chasing my career and money and not really cherishing the moment. I missed out on a lot.’
The actor added that after leaving Mrs Brown’s Boys, he now has time to ‘cherish’ every moment with his younger children.
