Calvin Harris announced he and his wife, Vick Hope, welcomed their baby last month, but added a few intimate snaps that shocked fans. The new father took to his social media on August 4 to share the happy news with a wholesome picture of him cradling his newborn son, Micah, while relaxing on a sofa in the garden.
However, the carousel contained a few more snaps that ‘fans weren’t prepared for’. In the second snap, Calvin was on his knees holding his newborn son – who was still in the home birthing pool with mum Vick. Another snap showed Vick leaning on the edge of the inflatable pool with her eyes closed. A few candles were lit to maintain a soothing atmosphere.
The fourth slide shocked fans the most as they “weren’t prepared” to witness a close-up photo of the placenta. He also shared snaps of the placenta, now cut up into pieces, placed into a dehydrator to be made into pills. “Congratulations! Coulda used a trigger warning in the last few slides tho,” one fan commented.
“I was NOT prepared for the placenta pic,” one shocked fan announced while another posted: “Swiping: “Oh wow!…. That’s amazing….. Congratula….. WHAT THE F**K!?”. Meanwhile, his fellow DJ pals congratulated him, with Armin Van Buuren and Sebastian Ingrosso sharing their well wishes
