HOLLY Willoughby appeared to get broody on Tuesday's This Morning as she cuddled the first ever First Dates baby.
The presenter, who has three children of her own, nursed three-week-old Aziza as she stood alongside co-host Phillip Schofield.
Grinning, she cooed: "Ooh look what I've got!"
Turning to the side to try and show viewers Aziza's face as she slept soundly on her shoulder, she said: "She's never going back, she's so sweet, she's so calm.
"She's like a little dumpling on my shoulder, oh she's so cute!"
Phillip warned her not to cry, and she replied: "No, I can't help it, she's so sweet, so sweet. It just feels nice."
Holly then reluctantly handed the sleeping tot back to her proud parents, Ibiba Mudada and Aarron Stewart, who met on hit Channel 4 dating show, First Dates.
After watching footage of the couple's first date and how they announced their pregnancy, Holly said: "I just got goosebumps!"
Ibiba and Aarron then revealed how they knew they had found 'The One' as soon as they met, with Ibiba saying: "I put my trust in the show".
Aarron added he was "very ready to settle down" when he entered the restaurant, and when Phillip asked what he was looking for, he replied: "What I found".
He continued: "I pretty much knew when I walked in and saw her."
Ibiba found out she was pregnant just seven weeks after they first met, and while Aarron was shocked, he supported his new girlfriend 100 per cent.
She said: "I was really shocked, under prepared, but when I told him I said there's only two options; I do it by myself or we do it together.
"He was amazing, he's been the best support to me from the beginning."
First Dates star Fred Sirieix, who sat alongside the couple, said: "This is why people love it so much, because it's real."
