Congratulations are in order for Eric Roberts and his wife Niamh.
The couple rang in the new year by welcoming their first child on New Year’s Day.
The TikTok star kept his followers updated with videos throughout Niamh’s labour on New Year’s Eve.
On the morning of New Year’s Day, Eric shared a black and white video of his wife and newborn in hospital.

“Our baby boy was born at 9:06AM 1/1/25…mother and son doing amazing,” he wrote.
He then shared pictures of the little family of three writing: “An unbelievable start to 2025. We couldn’t be any happier!!
“The staff here in Letterkenny University Hospital have been exceptional I can’t explain how amazing they have all been. We still haven’t thought of a name yet.”
We caught up with the happy couple last year, and Eric discussed Niamh’s pregnancy.

He told us: “I’m very excited. Niamh’s growing a human being with arms and legs and every day she’s in pain with her back or feeling sick and I’m just dawdling about like a feckin’ eejit asking if she needs anything.
“It’s obviously really hard on her but I’m very lucky she’s doing as well as she is. All I can do is try make her laugh every day.”
He went on to say: “I’ve always looked forward to becoming a dad, we are really family orientated. We are excited for the challenge, we’re terrified, we have no idea what we are supposed to be doing, but like every parent we’ll learn as we go. We’ll make our own mistakes too and see how we get on.”
Congratulations to the happy couple!
