I GOT TWO BABES! Joy as Westwife Gillian gives birth to first son
Westlife star Shane Filan and his wife Gillian celebrated the birth of their first son early yesterday.
The couple who already have a daughter, Nicole Filan (3), have decided to name their bouncing new baby Patrick.
Both mum and baby are well and believed to be in Sligo General Hospital.
"They're delighted and everything went well," said one insider.
The new baby is perfect timing for Shane and Gillian - as the chart-topping band is taking an extended break until next year.
Little Nicole was born on July 23rd, 2005 and has been the apple of the pop-star daddy's eye ever since.
However, the couple were anxious to give her a little sister or brother before she got much older.
"It seems the perfect time to add to our family" revealed Shane.
He said "It's going to be hectic with two little ones running around - but we really can't wait."
Chance
"With the band taking a year off I'll have the chance to get really stuck in," said the thrilled dad.
"I'll be able to give Gillian all the help she needs," he added.

Bop Bop Baby Boy WESTLIFE star Shane Filan was celebrating the birth of his second baby last night.
The singer's wife Gillian gave birth to a healthy son Patrick at 3.40am yesterday - and Shane told us he was "walking on aor" with joy.
The Westlife star, 29, told the Irish Daily Mirror that Gillian was rushed to Sligo General Hospital at around midnight after her water suddendly broke.
He added: "We rushed to hospital and then just three-and-a-half hour later she gave birth.
It was a na´tutal delivery which is what Gillian really wanted and it all went in a flash.
"She didn't even have much pain relief so she really did incredibly well. I am just in ave of her. It was a complete suprise to have a boy - we hadn't found out the sex in advance.
"I was sure it was going to be a girl but Gillian said it would be a boy. She was right, as always.
"He actully really does look like me around the face - but you can see Gillian in him too.
"I'm very tired but completly overjoyed. I feel so lucky and like im walking on air."
Shane took three-year-old daughter Nicole to visit her new baby brother yesterday afternoon.
He said: "It's going to be a great moment to see her meeting her little bro for the first time.
She knew there was a baby coming but I don't think the reality will really hit her now."
Shane and Gillian who wed in December 2003, have picked Michael as the newborn middle name - after Gillian's dad.
Yesterday the happy couple was bombared with messages of congratulations from their showbiz pals.
Manager Louis Walsh called from Miami while band mate Nicky Byrne, who is on holiday in Portugal, sent lovely flowers.
His other band mates Kian Egan and Mark Feehily are expected to visit the baby in the coming days and were among the first on the phone to congratulate the singer.
Shane added: "It's going to be a mad few weeks in the Filan household but it's the greatest feeling in the world."

It's a great coincidence when Patrick was born, it was few hours before Survivor Philippines began to air.
