British TV personality Aaron Chalmers, best known for his appearance on the hit MTV show Geordie Shore has just revealed some sad news about his baby boy shared with his partner Talia Oatway.
Taking to his Instagram story yesterday, 25 August, the 35-year-old shared the news to worried fans.
Aaron began the statement saying, "Just to give you a brief update [...] we've had another healthy baby boy called Oakley weighing six pounds and one ounce."

The reality TV star continued: "Unfortunately, there's been a few issues with the baby.
"We were in fetal medicine for most of the pregnancy, then we got cleared, unfortunately it wasn't cleared, and it wasn't picked up on the scans," he continued, "So, the little bubba is probably going to be in and out of surgery for the next 18 months to 24 months, so just me and Talia are coming to terms with everything."
While appreciative and 'overwhelmed' by all the congratulatory messages following the baby's birth, Aaron wanted to make it known that the couple were not ignoring people but more preoccupied in dealing with the news.
"We're not ignoring people, we're just letting things soak in, just taking everything like what the specialists are saying and stuff, it's been a rollercoaster and two days."
The Geordie Shore star took the time to reassure concerned fans that 'the baby is healthy – heart, lungs and all that stuff, but we're just got loads of meeting specialists and just letting people know the plan for the next few months'.
Aaron took to Instagram again today, 26 August, for a follow-up statement regarding further news of his newborn son's health.
"Listen, I really appreciate all the messages after yesterday's story," he began.
"I'm going to stay at the hospital tonight with Talia and the baby so, I'm really looking forward to that. It's been another day of seeing specialists and getting a plan of what's going to happen and all that stuff."
He continued: "It's a lot of information to take in in such a short time but, once I again I want to say thank you."
The father of three ended the Instagram story update telling fans that their support 'means a lot'.
Talia Oatway has also since re-posted Aaron's stories alongside releasing her own statement letting her fans know: "I'm just trying to have time to process a lot of information."
Aaron, 35, first hit our screens back in 2014 when he joined the eighth season of the notoriously popular Geordie Shore alongside co-stars Holly Hagan, Gaz Beadle and Charlotte Crosby.
