Niamh Flatley gave birth to the couple’s son at a hospital in Ireland. The little guy was reportedly overdue, and Michael tells the Irish Daily Mail, “As I said, we had a very long labor. We came in last night at 10 pm and had the baby today at noon. It was by Caesarean section. In the end Niamh is healthy and we have a healthy baby boy.”

The dancer posted this statement on his website: We are overjoyed. Both Mum and Baby are doing well. I cannot wait to get Niamh and our baby son home to Castlehyde. We would like to thank Professor John Higgins and all the wonderful staff at the Hospital”.
