Keeley Donovan and husband Johnny I'Anson have named their newborn daughter Remi, announcing the arrival on Instagram after a three-year journey that included a miscarriage in January 2023. The BBC Look North presenter, who broke her social media silence with the news, wrote that "it hasn't been an easy journey" but called Remi "our little miracle." Donovan had previously spoken openly about her miscarriage, saying she felt "shame" and wanted other women to know they were not "alone." The couple, who married in 2018, are already parents to daughter Scout, born in 2020.

Donovan wrote on Instagram: 'She really is our little miracle and has brought us so much happiness already.'

The family plan to share more details "over the coming months" while enjoying life as a family of four.

Donovan, who joined the BBC in 2005, also presents segments for Countryfile and BBC Radio Humberside alongside her Look North weather role.
