Katy Perry revealed she was pregnant in the music video for her single Never Worn White earlier this year.

Katy also shared that she had nicknamed the baby "Kicky Perry" before she was born.

Daisy is Katy's first baby, and Orlando's second, as he also has a nine-year-old son with his ex-wife Miranda Kerr, called Flynn.

Speaking about becoming a father again he said: "I'm looking forward to that because I love those quiet times at night when the world feels like it's asleep and you've got a sleeping baby."

Orlando Bloom has starred in films like Pirates of the Caribbean and The Lord of the Rings.
