STRICTLY Come Dancing star Neil Jones has broken his silence on becoming a dad for the first time, after welcoming a baby girl with his Love Island fiancée.
Happy couple Neil and Chyna announced yesterday that their daughter has finally arrived, and the proud parents couldn't be more overjoyed.
Neil, 41, and Chyna, 24, revealed their little bundle of joy had entered the world by sharing a sweet black and white snap of their baby’s feet, making them a family of three.
And talking about dad life while at a Shakeup cosmetics brand event on Thursday, Neil told The Sun: “I am on cloud nine.
“I’m just enjoying life so much and in such a good place. I’m not stressed or scared about dad life.
“As a dancer if something went wrong I’d be the one who’d never stress about it because I’m like ‘it’s life’ and that’s the same for becoming a dad. I love learning new things, that’s what life is all about.”

Discussing how his stunning partner Chyna is getting on after welcoming their bundle of joy, the dance star continued: “She’s so amazing, and she’s excited about everything.
“She was a social worker so she has been around kids all her life and when we initially started talking, that’s what we spoke about and why we got on so well because we had so much in common and we’d have long conversations about the future, not just about going on dates.”
After Neil and Chyna shared their photo yesterday, their followers immediately rushed to congratulate them, with one saying: "Ahhhhh amazing!! Congratulations guys.”
While another one wrote: "Ahhh congratulations to you both!"

Chyna also shared an update on Instagram as she posted a photo of her baby’s crib and wrote: “Good morning. Thank you for all your lovely messages & comments (I will try to get through them all.)
“I really appreciate each and everyone and your love and support doesn’t go unnoticed.
“We are so overwhelmed with happiness. Love you all.”
The happy couple – who got engaged earlier this year – revealed they were pregnant with their first child in April.
Neil and Chyna officially started dating last September, after she caught his eye when she starred in Love Island just a few months earlier.
He is said to have enjoyed watching the ITV2 hit while on the Strictly Come Dancing tour bus.
Neil is balancing dad life with a busy schedule, with the star currently performing on Strictly Come Dancing every Saturday.
He is also a celebrity ambassador for skincare brand Shakeup Cosmetics and championed their Age Def-eye Instant Lifting Eye Cream while at the event on Thursday morning, due to “needing it more after becoming a dad.”
