Willow Rose - who has a two-year-old brother Elwood Jack - was born at approximately 10am weighing 7lb 8oz.

A spokesperson for the band said: "Mark, Emma and Elwood are thrilled. Mum and daughter are very healthy and happy."

Last week, Mark refused to party with his bandmates after shooting Christmas TV special 'Take That Come To Town' because he was terrified of missing the birth.

The 36-year-old singer said: "I get nervous being away from her. I don't want to be stuck in the middle of nowhere when she goes into labour - I want to be at her side."

Speaking shortly after the birth of Elwood, Mark admitted fatherhood had been a "shock to the system" and he was finding it very tiring.

Take That release their new song 'Greatest Day' this week - which is expected to reach number one in the UK singles chart.

The track is taken from the band's forthcoming album 'The Circus', which is released on December 1.
