Dermot and Dee announced that they had welcomed their first son at the end of June. Taking to Instagram, Dee shared a photo of a white onesie printed with the words: "Koppang O'Leary productions Est 2020."
Dee captioned the sweet picture: "Welcome to the world baby Koppang O’Leary... We’re delighted to announce that we’ve had a baby! A little boy born on Tuesday 23rd June 2020 (Sankthansaften/Midsummer for us Norwegians) at 8.19 am, weighing in at 6lb 13oz. Enjoying the cuddles in the newborn bubble... cats yet to be 100% convinced. Lots of love, Dee & Dermot."
Just days later, at the beginning of July, the happy couple revealed their son's name was Kasper.
Announcing the unique moniker live on his BBC radio show, 47-year-old Dermot said: "My lovely son came into the world ten days ago accompanied by Guy Garvey's Elbow. So forgive this moment of brief self-indulgence while we play the song that accompanied that."
Revealing the name, he added: "This is for you Kasper with a K - my wife is very insistent on that. Kasper Koppang O'Leary welcome to the world!"
