Nineties pop heartthrob and Celebrity Big Brother star welcomes second baby and reveals very unusual name
A NINETIES pop heartthrob and former Celebrity Big Brother star has revealed he’s become a dad for the second time.
The 42-year-old took to Instagram to share the happy news with snaps of his newest addition.
Ben Adams, who shot to fame with pop group A1 in 1998, and wife Sara Skjoldnes already share daughter Skylar, who was born in 2021.
And his post revealed Sara had given birth to a baby boy who they’ve named Storm.
Ben wrote: “Here he is!
“Storm Skjoldnes Adams born on 23/04/24 at 13.17 weighing 9 pounds/4.1 kilos. BIRTH IS NO JOKE!
“Tears, sweat, exhaustion, bravery… but thankfully I managed to get through it and am recovering well. Thanks for asking
“(@saraskjoldnes_adams did ok too). Let’s go home!”
A1 was made up of Ben, Paul Marazzi, Christian Ingebrigtsen and Mark Read.
They enjoyed chart success with hits like Same Old Brand New You and their cover of Take On Me by a-ha.
In 2002 Paul left the group, citing “personal reasons” and the group subsequently split up.
Ben took part in the sixth series of Celebrity Big Brother in 2009, finishing in fifth place.
A1 reunited shortly afterwards and Paul returned to the group in 2017.
They’ve been releasing music ever since and last year announced a huge tour.
