We have a name! Alex Cullen has officially introduced the world to his third child with wife Bonnie; and he’s called Max Thomas Campbell Cullen.

Taking to Instagram with an intimate close-up photo of his newborn son, the Today Show presenter shared the classic name with fans.

“Introducing Max Thomas Campbell Cullen,” the 40-year-old father of three captioned the snap.

“@bonbonred and Max are doing well and we are happy beyond words. Thank you so much to everyone for all your lovely messages and well wishes.”

Though he’s only a few days old, we can already tell little baby Max is going to be a cutie just like his siblings.

Alex and wife Bonnie share two older kids, twins Audrey and Evie who must be so excited by their baby brother’s arrival on Sunday.

The sports presenter shared the news of Max’s arrival on Monday, posting a series of photos from the hours after his birth on social media.

“We couldn’t be happier. Our healthy, happy little boy came into the world at 1.08 on Sunday morning weighing 3.7 kilograms,” he wrote at the time.

Bonnie shared some beautiful photos from hospital.

“After 41 and a half weeks it was well and truly worth the wait!”

Alex teased fans by choosing not to reveal his third child’s name right away, though it’s unclear if he just wanted to keep it private for a day, or if he and Bonnie simply hadn’t settled on one yet.

“Name TBC and can’t wait for his big twin sisters Audrey and Evie to meet him, boss him and shower him with cuddles,” Alex wrote on Monday.

“I marvel at Bonnie’s strength especially in these very trying times. Just amazing. Mum and baby Cullen recovering well.”

Meanwhile, Bonnie shared her own snaps on Instagram, writing: “Look who’s finally arrived! Welcome to our beautiful baby boy.”

“Can’t wait to introduce him to our girls. Three under three – fun times ahead,” she wrote alongside laughing and love heart emojis.

She and Alex will have their work cut out for them, but the proud parents couldn’t look happier with their latest addition to the family.

Twins Audrey and Evie arrived in January 2020, meaning they’re close in age with their new baby brother and will hopefully have a strong bond with him growing up.

Alex was smitten with his girls when they were born too, the presenter writing on Instagram at the time: “Our new family.

“Our beautiful girls were born in the very early hours of January 20. Mum is doing great. Girls are too. We couldn’t be happier.”

Congratulations to him and Bonnie on baby Max’s arrival – we just hope they got some rest before bringing him home!
