Calvin Harris has shared a heartfelt post as the Scottish DJ has become a father for the first time. The Feel So Close hitmaker and his wife Vick Hope welcomed their son Micah into the world two weeks ago. The DJ has praised his spouse as a “superhero” after being by her side throughout the water birth.
Calvin romantically proposed to Vick after just five months of dating during a charming escape to his farm on Ibiza. The couple tied the knot four months later in a breathtaking ceremony at Hulne Priory, Alnwick.
Vick gave birth to their baby boy on July 20, and Calvin has recently shared a series of snaps to welcome their baby into the world. He shared a heartwarming photo of himself holding his newborn, as well as some graphic shots of the placenta and it subsequently being turned into capsules of powder.
Calvin wrote on Instagram: “20th of July our boy arrived. Micah is here! My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah.” Vick reshared Calvin’s photo of himself and Micah on her own Instagram Story and wrote: “My boys.”
Hundreds of fans and showbiz stars rushed to the comments to send their love to the family. Gemma Atkinson said: “Beautiful. Congratulations to you both. Well done Vick!!!”
Singer Becky Hill, who is performing at Haydock Park Racecourse this Friday, also added to the comments on Instagram. She said: “Love to see the placenta!! Amazing we grow a whole new organ to provide life! Good job not wasting it either, that’s some goddess magic right there!”
Oliver Heldens wrote: “Wow, congratulations to all 3 of you! Are those pills made of the placenta? (Brb, I gotta ask ChatGPT some questions, I want to know more.” Another follow said: “It’s nice to see someone with a big platform bringing the natural side of birthing to IG.”
John Summit said: “Huge congrats man!!” while LFC player Andy Robertson wrote: “Congratulations mate” with a red love heart emoji.
Calvin made a a special guest appearance for the Liverpool FC parade bus in May this year. The Scottish DJ is responsible for unofficial club anthem One Kiss alongside Dua Lipa.
Sharing the exciting news at the time, Liverpool FC wrote: “This is what you came for. @CalvinHarris ready to go”. One fan of the entertainer commented on the post “Let’s go. Vibes are unmatched when Calvin Harris hits the stage!”
Earlier this year, Vick and Calvin announced they were expecting their first child when the radio presenter spoke about her pregnancy on BBC Radio 1. Vick shared with listeners: “I should say that this is my final week.
“I wanted to share that with you because we’ve had such a lovely time over the last few weeks. That time is coming to an end for a bit because I’m going on maternity leave next week.”
Co-host Jamie Laing replied: “You’re an amazing friend, an amazing person, and you’re just going to be an amazing mum.”
