Katherine Ryan reveals baby son Fred was ‘nearly born in the car’

Katherine Ryan revealed she almost gave birth to her son Fred in the car.

Speaking to This Morning’s hosts, Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, the comedian said: “I booked into a posh hospital, I tried to have him the way I’d seen the royal babies be born.

“I thought ‘I’m going to have a great time’, no, (Fred was) nearly born in the car.”

“The universe was like ‘that’s not for you, Katherine’.”

Ryan quipped her 12-week-old son “was already the size of a 12-year-old”.

“He’s about my daughter’s size. She’s 12-years-old,” she added.
