Sophie Ellis Bextor has her fifth baby!

Sophie Ellis Bextor has given birth to a baby boy. The singer and husband Richard Jones, bass player with the band The Feeling already have four sons. The fifth addition to the family, a baby boy who they named Mickey. The others are Sonny, 13, Kit, nine, Ray, five, and the youngest Jesse, three. All boys! What a gang!

She said: “The album will come out around the same time as my fifth infant because I’m having my fifth baby. Mental!” Hours after appearing on Sunday Brunch to promote her seventh album, The Song Diaries, she went into labour with her son Mickey.

Her due was January 11th. “Originally the album was going to be coming out sooner. I had a funny chat with my manager Derek where I said, “I’m having a baby and I’m due on January 11th” and he said, “That’s when the album’s coming out, too!”’

The Murder On The Dancefloor singer has a busy year ahead indeed! With a new album out and a new addition to her family, this year is sure to be a whirlwind. I wonder if the baby shower will be disco themed!? Not a bad idea!
