Congratulations are in order for and his wife Sarah Tarleton, who have welcomed their second child together.
In a post shared on Instagram, the YouTuber uploaded a photo of his newborn son in black and white, showing the newborn wearing an adorable outfit and matching hat while having a peaceful sleep.
‘He’s here…. Jesse Patrick Chapman ❤️,’ Jim, 35, wrote in the caption, adding on his Instagram Story that the baby is ‘so blond’.
Congratulations have poured in for Jim and Sarah, including from fellow YouTube stars.
‘Congratulations guys! He’s gorgeous ♥️,’ wrote Zoe Sugg, while Alfie Deyes commented with a heart emoji.
Great British Bake Off star Ruby Bhogal added: ‘He’s perfect! Cannot wait to meet little Jesse – hope mama is recovering well,’ while model Chloe Lloyd said: ‘Can’t wait to meet my new little nephew. Well done guys. Xx.’
Jim and Sarah have been married since 2022 and share a daughter together called Margot Grace Alba, who was born in 2021.
Jim, who has more than two million subscribers on YouTube on a channel that he’s been running since 2009, was previously in a relationship with fellow YouTube Tanya Burr.
The former couple were married in 2015, before divorcing four years later, having been together for several years prior.
Last year, Jim spoke out about his past relationship with Tanya and his romance with Sarah, insisting that there was no crossover between the two.
‘There was plenty of time between my ex and meeting Sarah, but when we met we were like oh my god. Like she was my first date since before my ex, like 12 or 13 years ago,’ he said at the time.
He continued: ‘[Sarah] was my first date for 12 years or whatever it was, and then yeah, we couldn’t like, detach at the hip from that point on.’
In June this year, Jim shared an adorable picture on Instagram of himself sitting with his daughter Margot as they watched the rain from inside a doorway.
‘I really like being her dad,’ he wrote in the caption.
‘Here’s to watching the rain with my little girl, for the rest of my life. (And the little man, when he arrives, obvs).’
