Miss Portas told The Times of Horatio's birth:
'Lawrence was the first one there [with us] and he picked him up and it was just very emotional. He and I walked out into the sunshine holding him. I remember we were round the back of the hospital and I said to him 'thank you!' and he said, 'It's my pleasure', and we just held each other.
That was it, you know? It's amazing. And now, when I look at Horatio, he is a complete mix of [Mel] and me.'
She added:
'Of course, now I know that it could only ever have been Lawrence who was Horatio's father.'

The star of Mary Queen of Shops said of Horatio:
'He is extraordinarily charming, so full of life. He's slept since he was five months old.
He loves kicking a ball, he loves puzzles, music – I think because there is so much joy and easiness around him. We are all calmer … but we still get that thing at 6.30am when he shouts out 'Mama! Mama!'.'
Mr Newton, who has no wish for a family of his own, is living with his sister, her partner and their son for three months before he emigrates to Bermuda to be with his girlfriend.
Miss Portas has two elder children – Mylo, 21, and Verity, 18 – with her ex-husband Graham Portas, a chemical engineer. The couple split in 2003 before Miss Portas met Miss Rickey at a dinner held at the Royal College of Art. The couple entered into a civil partnership in 2010.
Miss Portas, who also runs a communications agency and a string of charity shops, admitted that Miss Rickey wants another child – but said she does not have the energy to raise one.
'God, I couldn't have another one!' she said. 'I'm tired. I also like balance in my life.' Follow @maryamwokiliblog BBM Pin- 2AD7BD2D and BBM Channel- C003F8977
