She announced she was pregnant with her first child back in January and has been documenting her bump on social media throughout.
Taking to Instagram to announce the birth of her first child, Kate revealed that she has welcomed a little boy to the world.
Posting a picture of her son squeezing onto her little finger, Kate captioned the post: 'Welcome to planet Earth, our magical little fella ✨❤ #babyboy'.
Before confirming her new arrival Kate posted a final picture of her bump with the caption: 'So... I’ve had a few weeks off these little squares. And we’ve been BUSY... #pregnancy #baby #newmum'.
Over the last few weeks she has been on the search for women to discuss their breastfeeding experiences for a Channel 4 documentary. This is clearly Kate's next big project and will likely be the focus of her return to work.

Kate and her actor husband James Lance, who has starred in Teachers and I'm Alan Partridge, met at Edinburgh Festival and she says it was love at first sight.
Speaking to the Daily Record about that moment Kate said: 'We met at the Edinburgh Festival eight years ago. He was in a play and I was there for the TV Festival. I walked into Brooks Bar and that was it. I was very lucky I saw him and I kind of knew in an instant I was probably going to have his babies.'
She added: 'It was one of those magical moments where you think, "Gosh" and your life changes in an instant.'
