Joel Dommett recently revealed an unusual gift he was given from his wife Hannah Cooper after she gave birth to their first child, Wilde.
The 38-year-old appeared on Loose Women on Monday and shared that Hannah, 35, gifted Joel a lovely necklace which was made out of breast milk.
The necklace was presented to him alongside the umbilical cord which the couple had framed.
The television presenter admitted it is a bit peculiar in the house but he would feel weirder if he were to throw it away.
Joel hilariously worried about ‘what if I come home one night and think “oooh a pork scratching”.’

Joel also shared a story where close friend and co-host on The Masked Singer, Jonathan Ross, sent a bundle of useful baby gifts including muslins and baby clothes.
But then a large present was unwrapped revealing a 2001 robot dog, which Jonathan admitted to sending by mistake.
When Joel asked whether he wanted it back, the talk show host responded with ‘no I don’t I have 6 of them!’
Wilde was born in September, with the happy couple sharing the news via their Instagram accounts.
Joel told the Loose Women ladies how much he loves being a father, he said: ‘I love being a parent so much and he is now learning waving and like it blows my mind and I feel like he has given me something to talk about.
‘Usually I have to talk about myself but now i have him.’
In October, the TV presenter revealed that his TV pal and mother-of-three Holly Willoughby has already given him and Hannah some parenting advice.
He told The Mirror: ‘It’s amazing, it’s everything everyone says it will be and more. Nothing can prepare you for it. But we’re very happy as our new little family and Hannah has been beyond amazing.’
Recalling Holly’s advice, Joel said: ‘I think you read all the books in the world, but you’re still pretty naïve to what’s going to happen.
‘I hope I’m going to be a good dad. And Holly Willoughby gave me some lovely advice and said, ‘All you’ve got to do is love them’. And I think that’s the best advice you can have really.’

Joel also told how his Masked Singer co-star Davina McCall has also given them great advice and he has been texting regularly with Emma Willis about the trials and tribulations of parenthood.
Joel is back to work following Wilde’s birth and recently filmed the UK reboot of Survivor in the Dominican Republic.
The reality TV series, which aired its original UK version on ITV from 2001 to 2002, is making a return to screens 20 years after being axed.
Joel and Hannah met after she slid into his DMs following his 2016 appearance on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, sending him a heart eye emoji.
Joel and Hannah announced their engagement in December 2017 after a year of dating, and in May 2019 confirmed that they had purchased their first house together.
In 2018, he told Metro.co.uk: ‘This is the person I want to spend the rest of my life with. It’s easy. Nothing feels difficult about talking about the future.’
Joel and Hannah married in 2019 after three years together, in an idyllic ceremony Mykonos, officiated by their friend Iain Stirling.
Wrapped up in a blanket, Hannah shared a snap of her baby boy’s feet and wrote: ‘Wilde Cooper-Dommett. Pinterest perfect baby feet that are already bigger than his Dad’s.’
The couple revealed that they were expecting their first child back in May with Joel admitting he had ‘no idea what he was doing’.
