Little Pia — who weighed 8lb 4oz — had been due on Christmas Day but was born just under three weeks early.
The name ‘Pia’ is a Latin term for devout or pious.
“He is expected to fly out to see Pia in the next few days. He’s very excited,” the Sun quoted a source close to the star as saying.
Meanwhile, Mario’s mum Rose Barwuah, who lives in Wythenshawe, Manchester, told The Sun: “I’m really happy to be a grandma.”
