Richard Madeley has told of the dramatic moment he found out his daughter Chloe was being rushed into theatre for an emergency c-section.
The Good Morning Britain presenter was live on air when he received the news from her husband James Haskell, 37, on the family’s group WhatsApp, which he opened during a commercial break.
Speaking exclusively to OK!, Richard said: “She was born about 8.30am - I was on air - I was on GMB, and I really wanted to tell people but I obviously couldn't because it was too soon, and we had to make sure everything was alright and all of the rest of it. “I was getting texts and emails from both her and James all the way through the programme - every time we hit a commercial break, I was opening them and something else would happen. "I was telling my co-presenter Charlotte Hawkins, privately, ‘it’s all kicking off, she’s being induced, oh my god she’s having an emergency c-section’ - but obviously I didn’t say anything on air.” While Richard was understandably apprehensive, the 66-year-old said he didn’t panic as his wife Judy’s children - including Chloe, 35, - had all been born by C-section.The couple are also devoted parents to Chloe’s brother Jack, who has son Kit, four.
And Judy shares twins Dan and Tom with her first husband David, and two granddaughters from Tom, who are nine and four. He said: “Judy has had all of hers by c section and all of mine by c section so I’m familiar with it.
