Sonny Blake is officially a big brother with the exciting news the nation’s first family have welcomed their second child.
Proud parents Zoe Foster Blake and Hamish Blake took to social media to confirm their wonderful news and their announcement is just as hilarious as you’d expect.
“Introducing Rudy Hazel Blake. Or, as she’s known in hip-hop circles, the Notorious RHB. Or, as she’s known to her brother, Blobby The Sister. She was born on 17-7-17 cos she’s super into auspicious numerology, came in at 4000/10 on the Teeny Cute Person scale, and has morphed her parents into gooey love monsters.”
Meanwhile, dad Hamish shared the stunning news on Instagram.
“Admitting another patron into the nightclub my wife and I run (I’m security, she’s the DJ). We have a fairly strict door policy as you have to be a child of the DJ and/or bouncer, so it’s always great to get someone new through the door.”
“The photo copy I took of her license says her name is Rudy Hazel Blake and I’m just about to tell her it’s a $12 cover charge. Nah, just messing with you Rudy, babies drink for free and you’re cute as hell. Free entry.”
Radio star Hamish, 35, recently confessed to 60 Minutes he couldn’t wait to add a new bub into their life.
“I’m just looking forward to falling in love,” he said.
As for feeling better prepared the second time around, Hamish joked: “[I’m] less scared of the imaginary stuff and more scared of the real stuff.”
Throughout her pregnancy, The Wrong Girl creator has spoken openly about looking after her body in the hopes of preventing the slew of complications she had while carrying Sonny, which included severe morning sickness, gestational diabetes and Ostetis Pubis.
Zoe, Hamish and Sonny are now a family of four!
“You’re better at it round two. You know stuff. You don’t panic about every weird twinge,” Zoe recently explained on her website.
Admitting her first pregnancy “was a bit s—” the writer took up Pilates and saw an Osteopath to combat potential ailments.
And of course, her doting hubby Hamish was on board to help in any way that he could. “Pregnancy is unforgiving, relentless work. This is not a time to play martyr or hero. Ask your partner for a foot rub every night, with no guilt. Have a rest when you can,” Zoe explained.
Before welcoming her second bub, the beauty maven also enlisted the help of birth doula Marie Burrows.
“Like many a wonderful doula and midwife, Marie makes me feel calm and positive about childbirth,” the 36-year-old said.
“Even the bit where I will spew everywhere, and tell my poor husband to stop f—— touching me, then beg him to massage my back 30 seconds later. She reminded me that it’s all positive pain, that each contraction is a small victory, a step closer. To surrender. To use drugs for fatigue, not to run away from the pain.”

“I’m just looking forward to falling in love,” Hamish has said of baby number two.
Zoe and Hamish, who tied the knot in December 2012 and are already share the most popular kid on Instagram, two-year-old Sonny, announced they were expecting their second child in February.
Hot on the heels of Beyonce’s internet-breaking twins post, Zoe copied Queen Bey’s photo shoot and joked: “When @beyonce and I fell pregnant at the exact same time, we were so happy,” the author and beauty guru wrote on Instagram. “We made a best friend pact to announce the news with high-concept, oversaturated floral imagery and mismatched lingerie on the SECOND of February.”
“But not only did my ‘best friend’ announce her pregnancy on the FIRST of February, she added an extra baby to make sure HER announcement was more special. Unfortunately, as you can see, news of her betrayal came through mid-photo shoot, but you get the gist.”
Congratulations again to the new family-of-four!
