MO Gilligan has shared a first video of his secret love child as they spent quality time together.
The popular comedian had a son named Rudy with model Selina Christoforou, 35, in January 2024.
It followed their brief friendship but the telly star never announced he had become a father.
Mo, 37, has since moved on with another model, Taia Tulher, 28, who is heavily pregnant with their first child.
In a new video posted to his Instagram story, Mo enjoyed some time with his young son on Monday.
The black-and-white clip showed the youngster playing Connect 4 in the garden with his dad.
The Masked Singer star covered his son's face with a heart emoji to protect his privacy.
The presenter also added Drake's hit song Emotionless to the clip, with some very telling lyrics.
They included: "Look at the way we live, I wasn't hiding my kid from the world, I was hiding the world from my kid.
"From empty souls, who just wake up and look to debate… The only ones I wanna tell are the ones I can call."
Elsewhere Mo and Taia have been quietly dating for almost two years and the couple live together in London.
A source said: "Mo met Selina after messaging her on social media and they hung out casually for a few months.
"She found out she was pregnant in May 2023 and it was quite a shock for them both because they'd been fairly careful.
"But she wanted to have the baby, despite the fact they weren't actually a couple.
"She adores their son and Mo sees him semi-regularly.
"Now he's about to become a dad for a second time and he's over the moon.
"He has been with Taia for quite a long time now and he feels ready to settle down."
The comedian, who recently completed a stand-up tour, broke up with his girlfriend of four years, actress Sophie Wise, at the end of 2022.
It was then revealed he was looking for love on celebrity dating app Raya.
Mo hosted The Lateish Show With Mo Gilligan on Channel 4 from 2019 to 2023 and was a co-host on The Big Narstie Show.
In 2020, he joined the panel of The Masked Singer, which he now stars on alongside Davina McCall, Maya Jama and Jonathan Ross.
He is also a regular on Celebrity Gogglebox.
In April, he spoke about his upbringing in Camberwell, South London, saying: "We didn't have a lot but we didn't know we didn't have a lot.
"If we just had corned beef and rice, that was cool.
"If mum did a big shop, it'd be like, 'Wow, we've got yogurts.
"There's boxed apple juice in the fridge and we've got crisps.'
"Those are the things you looked forward to as a kid.
"We didn't go on a single lavish holiday — maybe we'd go to Cardiff to see family."
