Sam Battle, known as Look Mum No Computer, appeared on Wednesday's Good Morning Britain (May 6) to discuss his upcoming Eurovision performance. The ITV star was quickly congratulated by host Richard Arnold on becoming a new dad.
Richard said: "Congratulations because you’re a dad very recently!" Sam replied: "Yeah, I know! Just over three weeks." Ed Balls and Richard corrected him, noting it was four weeks, while Kate Garraway added: "You’re in that first month blur, we can forgive you for that."
The musician announced the birth of his son Max on Instagram at the start of April, sharing a photo of the newborn in a blanket and yellow hat. He wrote: "Speak soon, everyone. Max born today, happy healthy. Back on it soon. Take care." The post received many congratulatory messages.
Sam Battle will represent the UK in this year's Eurovision Song Contest with his song 'Eins, Zwei, Drei'. He teased a risky move in his performance, saying: "There’s an element of risk that’s a bit risky, and if I miss the points, then I might have very bruised shins." He also mentioned some dancing, though he joked he has "two left feet".
The first Eurovision semi-final airs on Tuesday, May 12 at 8pm on BBC One.
