Calvin Harris and Vick Hope Design Play Lawn for Baby Micah at New Cotswolds Home

Having given birth to her first child in the summer, broadcaster Vick Hope is making sure that her son will have plenty of space to crawl around in.

The radio host, 36, and her husband, DJ Calvin Harris, 41, welcomed their first child together, a son called Micah, in July.

And settling into family life, the couple are putting the finishing touches to their mansion in the Cotswolds.

Little Micah is set to enjoy a giant play lawn as landscapers are creating a horticultural masterpiece at the £3.5million-plus home. 

The plans include a green space the size of three tennis courts, described in newly published planning documents.

The splendid home will also have a kitchen garden, rose arbour, walled garden, a campfire pit, a ‘summer tippee’ and a reflection pool, plus indoor and outdoor leisure pools.

The couple announced the arrival of baby Micah in August in a sweet social media post, following his birth on July 20. 

Vick had a home water birth at their property in Ibiza, where she flew after beginning her maternity leave.

Calvin shared a candid photograph of his wife laying in the birthing pool and a tender shot of himself with Micah moments after the birth. 

Alongside the series of photos, Calvin announced the birth and wrote: ’20th of July our boy arrived. 

‘Micah is here! My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! 

‘Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah.’

He included a graphic photograph of Vick’s placenta, which was later turned into pills by drying and grinding the organ into a powder that’s then encapsulated.

This practice, called placentophagy, is believed by some to offer postpartum benefits. 

Some people believe eating the placenta can prevent postpartum depression; ease bleeding after delivery; promote a healthy hormone balance in the body; improve mood, energy and milk supply; and provide important nutrients, such as iron. But there’s no evidence that eating the placenta has health benefits.

It comes after Vick looked every inch the doting mum as she cradled her newborn son Micah as she shared a series of sweet Instagram snaps last week.

The presenter, 36, looked incredible in a green and yellow halterneck swimsuit as she spent quality time with her three-month-old bundle of joy. 

Vick, who shares her son with Scottish DJ Calvin Harris, 41, looked happy as she gave a rare insight into the last few months since welcoming Micah in July.

In another snap, the star looked happier than ever as her little boy lay on her chest as she relaxed at home in Ibiza. 

The Radio 1 DJ enjoyed reading her book in the sunshine while her newborn slept in his pram nearby. 

Meanwhile another photo showed her and husband Calvin enjoying a walk while pushing Micah in his pushchair before Calvin was seen cradling his son by the sea. 

Reflecting on the year, Vick also shared a series of stunning bump snaps from her pregnancy as she posed in a bikini before slipping into a stylish maxi dress.  

She wrote: ‘A womb with a view, a summer of love and another trip around the sun’.
