You can always trust your kids to show you up on live telly, even very, very small ones – something new parents Lucy Mecklenburgh and Ryan Thomas have just learned.
The couple made an appearance on Good Morning Britain on Wednesday to discuss Ryan’s ITV travel series with his dad and two brothers.
But when the proud parents showed off their 10-week-old son to the cameras, it seems little Roman had wanted to give host Lorraine Kelly an extra special present.
Former Coronation Street star Ryan lifted the baby up to reveal there had been an almighty nappy explosion all over his white baby grow.
Speaking to Lorraine, Ryan said: “He’s got his best outfit today, and just for you on camera – pooped himself.”
“Well that’s what they do! And it’s fine, and he’s allowed” Lorraine said.
Ryan and Lucy welcomed their first child together just before the UK entered lockdown, and the former Only Way Is Essex star admitted it had been “really rough” not having the support of family and friends.
Roman is Lucy’s first child, while Ryan has a daughter, Scarlett, with former Corrie co-star Tina O’Brien, who plays Sarah Platt.
The engaged couple got together in 2017 after Lucy broke up with Olympian Louis Smith.
Ryan, who won the last series of Celebrity Big Brother in 2018 after fellow housemate Roxanne Pallett falsely accused him of punching her in the stomach, is currently appearing in Absolutely India: Mancs in Mumbai.
The documentary series sees Ryan and his two brothers – former Emmerdale and I’m A Celebrity star Adam, and Love Island series two contestant Scott – travelling to India with their father to learn more about their heritage.
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays from 6am on ITV.
