James shared the sweet photo to Instagram
At the end of last month, James shared the lovely news that his dog Mabel had given birth to eight puppies.
In an Instagram post, he shared clips of Mabel at her ultrasound appointments and giving birth to the puppies, as well as showing the newborns learning to walk and cuddling with each other.
"Mabel's golden bundles of joy," James captioned the post, revealing the news "to celebrate International dogs day".

He went on: "A few weeks ago Mabel gave birth to 8 healthy puppies. She passed all of her breed health screening tests with flying colours and has been the most amazing mother.
"There are some wonderful homes waiting for the pups + some very exciting news for one which I look forward to sharing soon."
Speaking to HELLO! for our Mental Health Digital Issue earlier in 2022, James said: "I also enjoy taking my six dogs for walks. It's lovely when people are interested in my dogs. They stop and say, 'Please can we say hi to them?' Before we know it, we're chatting."
