Charlotte Church has named her newborn son Dexter Lloyd Henson, her spokesman has confirmed.

The singer and presenter gave birth to her second child with rugby star Gavin Henson on Sunday.

The 22-year-old was at home in the Vale of Glamorgan in south Wales with Henson for the birth.

Her website said: "In keeping with Henson family tradition, Dexter will also have the name Lloyd as a middle name."

Dexter weighed in at 7lb 5oz and both mother and baby are doing fine, a statement said previously.

Cardiff-born Church gave birth to the couple's first child, 6lb 10oz Ruby Megan, in September 2007.

She and Wales centre Henson, 26, announced her second pregnancy last March.

The couple have been together for four years but have said that they do not plan to marry "any time soon".
