"He’s here, he’s perfect," said Martha.

Michael then commented that their son's name is pronounced "'LOO-SHUS' if you're wondering".

Martha had a tough pregnancy after being diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum at five weeks.

It's a severe morning sickness condition, which was also suffered by Kate Middleton.

Martha said: "It hasn't been this exciting, wonderful time for us. I don't want to sound like I'm complaining. 

"We are so excited, we are so happy, it was a complete surprise. But at five weeks I was diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum.

"Which is severe chronic nausea and vomiting with no relief. It is 24-7. I literally didn't get out of bed for two months."

Martha revealed that the horrifying sickness meant she lost ten kilograms in weight in just a matter of weeks.

"We have been in and out of the emergency room and hospital", she said, before revealing she was being treated with "life-changing" medication to tackle the nausea.

Martha and Michael got together on the 2019 series of MAFS Australia and are one of the few that are still together.

They join a small number of MAFS stars who have had children with someone they were matched with on the show.

Zoe and Alex from series one had a daughter called Harper, before they split up.

Jules and Cam from series six had a son called Oliver, and series 8 stars Bryce Ruthven and Melissa Rawson have twins, Levi and Tate.
