Olly Murs has a hectic schedule for the next few months as he juggles his arena tour with parenting his newborn daughter Madison.
The singer, 39, and his wife Amelia, 31, welcomed their first child two weeks ago, with Madison’s arrival coinciding with the start of his tour with Take That.
Olly is the support act for Take That’s This Life On Tour, and is performing at huge venues across the UK until June, before heading back out for festival season.
But proving he is dedicated to his new family, Olly has been racing home to Essex after gigs to spend time with Amelia and Madison.
After performing to thousands at London’s O2 arena on Friday night, Olly was back to reality, changing Madison’s nappy.

Sharing a carousel of photos from his night on stage and culminating in a sweet new snap of him and his daughter at the changing table, Olly quipped on Instagram: ‘What my Friday nights look like these days (swipe to the end).’
During his Friday night gig, Olly told the crowd how he has been juggling nappies and late nights, but feels guilty he has been working away from home.
‘It’s been the most craziest time. Cos obviously on one hand I’ve got this beautiful baby girl, my wife is at home looking after her with the nappies, and the sleepless nights.
‘And I’m on tour with Take That. I feel guilty!’
In the exclusive clip obtained my MailOnline, Olly continued: ‘But this week I’ve been home. I’ve done the nappies, I’ve done the late nights and I can’t wait to stay on tour.
‘I’m joking! Honestly, she is truly awesome. I never thought I’d be a dad, so I can’t quite believe it.
Pointing to his manhood, Olly shouted: ‘It works! And genuinely I’m super, super proud. And to be on this tour, it’s just topped it off. So what an amazing time for me right now.’
He added: So this next part for me, when I got on this tour, I thought, I just wanna play loads and loads of of my songs that hopefully some of you guys remember.

‘And before the baby was here, we actually called this next section The Minnie MURS Medley.
‘And so, ladies and gentlemen, if you’ve been following my career since 2009, some of these songs you will remember I hope you guys enjoy them. This is literally my Super Bowl moment!’
Olly went on to play fan favourite hits such as Troublemaker, Moves and Dear Darlin’ as he warmed up the crowd for Take That.
Olly and his bodybuilder partner, 31, who married in July last year, announced the arrival of their baby girl, Maddison on April 17, and just 48 hours after Amelia had given birth the singer was back on tour.
Sharing a clip of Olly on stage, Amelia wrote: ‘I’ve just been sat feeding our baby Madi and then we see this post. She doesn’t even know she’s got a super Daddy yet. We are both missing you very much but so proud of you @ollymurs.’

He wrote: ‘Aww you guys. Madi will love it.’
Taking to the stage with Take That at the First Direct Arena in Leeds, Olly announced: ‘What’s so amazing about tonight is it’s my first show as a daddy.
‘I’m going to try and not get emotional. Little Madison is doing really well.’
‘She’s at home with my lovely wife and it’s a real honour to be here. I wasn’t going to leave you guys hanging tonight, I’ll rush home to see the baby.’
