He said: ‘We had our first appointment with Colin Davis, the obstetrician who delivered our two sons, at the end of October…

‘As we sat down in the waiting room, the Bee Gees hit More Than A Woman came on the radio. The timing of it was such a surprise that we couldn’t help wondering if it was a sign.

‘We didn’t know we were expecting a boy at this stage and initially thought the title of the song could be my father’s way of telling us we were having a girl.’
