Former Strictly Come Dancing contestant Thomas Skinner has announced the birth of his fourth child with wife Sinead. The news was shared on Instagram, where the 34-year-old described the arrival of their ‘beautiful little one’ at 5:51pm, weighing 7lb 13oz.
Skinner praised his wife as ‘incredible’ and thanked midwives Jo and Sarah for their care. He revealed that the couple’s three other children – Henry, Roma and Darla – are eager to meet their new sibling, adding that the family now feels ‘complete’.
The announcement comes after a turbulent period for the former Apprentice star. In August, he joined the latest series of Strictly Come Dancing, but his participation drew criticism over his social media views. Further controversy followed when he snatched a journalist’s phone at a press event, and later admitted to a two-week fling with beautician Amy-Lucy O’Rourke in 2022, shortly after marrying Sinead.
Skinner was eliminated early from the competition, but the scrutiny continued. Despite the challenges, he now appears focused on celebrating family life. The baby’s gender has not been disclosed.
