Posting a sweet picture of his and wife Gemma's son on Wednesday, Newton, 38, said: "Someone’s happy to be here!

"This is Finley, my second son and today is his two week birthday.

"As you can tell, he’s awesome and he gets it from my wife, who I could not be prouder of."

Fans rushed to the comments section to send their love.

One wrote: "Oh my goodness 🥹❤️ so so happy for you all, sending the biggest cuddles xxxx."

Another said: "He is a dream!!!"

"What a sweetheart! Congratulations to you all x," a third chimed in.

This isn't the only huge news that the star has shared over the past few weeks.

Last month he revealed that he had tied the knot with his partner Gemma - and cleverly hid her baby bump in the photo with a bouquet of flowers.

Newton said: "On Friday I had the honour of marrying the most amazing woman I have ever met.

"I feel so lucky to have her in my life and love her considerably more than could ever be expressed in a single Instagram post or even song (but that doesn’t I going to stop trying)

"I’M A MARRIED MAN, and it feels very grown up on one hand but also fills me childish giggles of joy so I guess it balances itself out."

Newton's debut album - Hand Built by Robots - was a huge hit back in 2007.

It consisted of popular songs such as Dream Catch Me, I Need Something and Teardrop.

He's gone on to release other albums including Rebuilt By Humans, Sketches, Write It on Your Skin, Studio Zoo, Human Love and Hit the Ground Running.

Newton is still performing now - and looks like he has a busy summer ahead.

He's playing at the Here For The Music festival this weekend, as well as Glastonbury, the Stendhall Festival next month and the Big Feastival in August.

The star loves to also share videos of himself singing on Instagram.

He recently posted a clip of him covering Bohemian Rhapsody and fans went wild in the comments section.

One said: "I saw Newton Faulkner as opening act for Mika in 2010 and he played BoRhap and it was absolutely fantastic !"
