There was no sign of their son, who will be two months old on Monday, meaning his Irish family will have to wait a little longer until they get to meet him.

"The last year he didn't behave his best to Steph, but he's now seen the error of his ways and wants to provide a stable and loving home for his boy."

It was originally believed that Stephanie would stay at home in Liverpool with their son while he attended today's proceedings.

But it seems she has had a change of heart - no doubt brought on by seeing just how distraught her partner is.

"Today will be one of the hardest days of his life."
