She added: ‘We know that we are beyond lucky to have a second miracle in our lives, and feel so grateful to all the magnificent doctors and nurses who aided us in our IVF journey.

‘It was long, exhausting, and utterly devastating at times, but I wouldn’t change a single thing given that it all led me here to my two incredible boys… one my heart and the other my soul.

‘I hope sharing this can be a source of inspiration for those parents in-waiting… I know the odds are against us but it can happen!!’ 

The presenter, who has been married to Julian since 2016, gave birth to Phoenix in November 2021 after keeping her pregnancy a secret.

Amanda took to Instagram at the time to share the first picture of their baby boy alongside a lengthy post about her ‘long and heartbreaking’ fertility journey.

She wrote: ‘And then there was you. I’m so overjoyed, full of love and bursting with happiness to be able to share with you that @julianokines and I have welcomed our incredible son, Phoenix Blaze Byram Okines into the big wide, wonderful world…

‘What a privilege that he entrusted us to nurture and guide his little soul through the endless possibilities of life and we are eternally grateful to him for choosing us to be his parents. Our fertility journey has been long…

‘Our fertility journey has been long and we know only too well the heartbreak of the hope that turned to hopelessness, the elation that turned to devastation and the strain putting this often-secretive journey before your job, your friends, and your life.’

Amanda continued: ‘I know many brave parents-in-waiting who, like us, have struggled for a long time, so today we share this magical news in the hope it can inspire and offer a light at the end of the tunnel…

‘You are powerful warriors, I know your pain, and I see you. We send you all the strength you need to tackle your journeys…

Now that he is finally here, we realise we have never been more ready or felt more mentally, physically, and emotionally equipped to be his mummy and daddy.

‘My heart bursts with love for you… you have been my solid rock over these years, encouraging me to hang in and keep going….

‘After every tear, every tumble, every heartache, your positivity made everything seem possible again. It’s thanks to you, your energy, and your enthusiasm, that we are all here together today…

‘We are so lucky to have you, and Phoenix is lucky to call you his Daddy, I know you are already his hero. We love you infinitely ❤️’ .

In 2015, she spoke about her fears over ‘leaving it too late to be a mum’. 

She said at the time: ‘Look, I’m 42. And I never really wanted to go down that road until I was really, really sure I had met the right person…

‘I think there are choices you make as a woman, you can choose to do it by yourself, to do it with somebody even if you are not convinced they are the right person. Or you can wait for the right person and then maybe find it is too late…

‘We have been together a year-and-a-half. I’m fit, I’m healthy, there are no problems in that sense. So who knows? It’s in the hands of the gods.’
