Katherine Ryan Dotes on Newborn Holland with Husband Bobby Kootstra

Katherine Ryan arrived at the BBC Studios cradling her newborn baby girl, Holland, with her husband, Bobby Kootstra, on Tuesday afternoon in London.

The comedian, 42, who is now a mother of four, and her husband Bobby confirmed the birth of their daughter on social media earlier this month. 

Katherine cut a smart casual figure for the public appearance, sporting a grey-checked blazer paired with grey velour jogging bottoms.

Katherine completed her look with black leather military boots as she held onto the tot, who was wrapped up warm in an adorable pink personalised baby blanket. 

Meanwhile, Bobby cut a more laidback figure for the outing, wearing a plain black T-shirt, a black hoodie, and grey corduroy jogging bottoms.

He completed his look with beige Nike trainers and a grey baseball cap, carrying Katherine’s mini black handbag in one hand.

Katherine appeared in high spirits as she gave a gentle wave to the cameras whilst making her way into the studio.

Katherine and Bobby’s outing comes just days after she opened up about the fierce backlash her parenting advice has received.

The comedian welcomed her daughter Holland this month and also shares son Fred, four, and daughter Fenna, two, with Bobby. 

She is also mother to her first daughter, Violet, 16, from a previous relationship.

Speaking on Davina McCall’s Begin Again podcast, which was recorded while still heavily pregnant, Katherine said she’d been branded ‘privileged’ after offering advice to other new mums, especially when it comes to potty training. 

After previously revealing her son Fred was out of nappies by eight-months, she said: ‘I say that you should start potty training babies from almost birth. And when I say potty training, I think it gets lost in translation.’ 

‘People go: “What do you mean?” And they get mad right away because they feel like: “Well, because I’ve got a three-year-old in a nappie, you’re saying that’s my fault and I’m negligent and I don’t love my child” I just think there’s a miscommunication.’

The mum-of-four went on to explain that she believed ‘well-meaning, very loving parents’ didn’t realise they were in fact training their newborns to use a nappy.

‘If you take the nappie off at regular intervals and you put them, you hold them on a potty, you’re training them to go in the potty.’ 

But Katherine said she understood this could not work for all families, with many new mums having to go straight back to work and babies put in day care.   

‘The reaction that I get is people going: “Well, you’re privileged and you have chefs and nannies” Well, I don’t’ before quipping: ‘I mean, I do.’

‘I have a nanny and I have a cleaner that comes twice a week, but there’s no chef. Oh, that’s Bobby. Yeah. Okay. So, there I do have all that. But I potty trained [eldest daughter] Violet as a very financially insecure single mom.’
