Taking to Instagram to share a photo of the new parents kissing, Ollie wrote: "I'm thousands of miles away working very late in Los Angeles, coincidently where nearly 2 years ago to the day on the same street I watched JP and Bink's adventure begin! Two days ago they had a beautiful baby girl and I couldn't be happier for them, doing it quietly in the most private way."
