But this Sunday, April 21, after several nights away and a show in Leeds, the Heart Skips a Beat singer made the most of break from the stage to share a snap of little Madison on his Instagram account. The adorable picture shows the young baby sleeping in her cot, with her tiny feet facing the camera. "Bless Madi i think she’s got her Dad's feet", Olly quipped in the caption. And his fans went wild over the shot.

I wasn’t going to leave you guys hanging tonight, I’ll rush home to see the baby." Olly also admitted that he hadn't enjoyed having to be away from his family: "We are over the moon and just full of love. It was so horrible to say goodbye to Madison this morning and Amelia. But the show must go on. I can't believe I am a dad."

Meanwhile, Amelia was just as keen to have her husband home again. Taking to her own Instagram account earlier this week, the young mother shared a picture of Madison in her story, captioning: "got my special jammies on tonight because guess who's coming home after 4 days away at work." An positively overwhelmed Olly then replied by sharing the same shot in his own story, writing: "stop it", along with a crying emoji.
Amelia and Olly have been inseparable since they first started dating in 2020, and announced their engagement on June 4, 2022, after the singer popped the question the day before. They tied the knot more than a year later, on July 15, 2023. A handful of months later, weeks ahead of Christmas, the couple revealed they were expecting their first child.
