It was an emotional morning for Daddy Pig, as he FaceTimed Richard Arnold and the Good Morning Britain gang for his first ever TV interview. The children’s character welcomed his third child with Mummy Pig last week, and he couldn’t hold back his tears as he updated fans on how the family were doing.
The happy news that the couple had welcomed piglet Evie was announced on the ITV show last week. Fans had been following he pregnancy journey closely ever since Mummy Pig stunned viewers back in February, making the surprise announcement live on Good Morning Britain that she was expecting again.
Now, fans have been treated with yet another update, courtesy of Daddy Pig who called his newest little piglet “perfect”.

When asked how life had been since welcoming Evie, he said: “It’s been a tiring and completely amazing few days. Everything went well, and Mummy Pig has been incredible. Peppa and George were so excited to meet her new little sister.”
Daddy Pig then took the GMB crew to meet Evie via FaceTime – as Richard Arnold gushed over the heart on Evie’s cheek.
Speaking on how Peppa and George have adapted to the new arrival, Mummy Pig said: “They could hardly contain themselves. But they were so gentle and sweet too. Evie did a little laugh when she saw them, didn’t she Daddy Pig?”

“How could I forget?” said an emotional Daddy Pig as he shed a tear. “Sorry, that’s me off again!” he exclaimed, as Mummy Pig explained it had been an emotional week for the family.
Rounding off the interview with advice for new parents, Mummy Pig said: “Trust your instinct and enjoy every moment, as Daddy Pig added: “Always keep a spare nappy or so nearby. AND don’t let your four year old loose on live television!”
Last week, host Susanna Reid asked how much Evie Pig weighed when she was born – and this week she finally got her answer. Questioning Richard again, the entertainment reporter replied: “8 bundles of snuggles, the family informed me.”
It’s not the only exciting news the family have to share. This Friday, Peppa will be releasing a new album this Friday. On the same day, Peppa Meets The Baby will be showing in cinemas nationwide.
