Admittedly, Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr’s first son does have his face obscured in the picture which his proud parents released last night, but we’re happy to stand with our prediction of seven months ago – baby Flynn is going to be very, very pretty.

The couple revealed that Miranda’s drug-free labour was “long, arduous and difficult”, which is hardly surprising given Flynn’s impressive 9lb12oz weigh-in.

We note with interest that Bloom and Kerr have been married only six months, which makes their abrupt and unexpected shotgun quickie wedding seem rather more comprehensible. Orlando obviously picked up some rather free and easy habits aboard the Black Pearl…

Still, new babies are lovely. Best For Film’s hearty congratulations go to the happy couple and their charmingly foppish (probably) offspring.
