on air, said: “Ping and Pong arrived safe and well last night.

“Ping popped her head out at 22.10, Pong popped his head out 12 minutes later at 22 minutes past 10.

“Both healthy, both strong, happy and blessed, as was mum throughout.

“Infinite thanks to the amazing team at Frimley Park Hospital, amazing people, amazing professionals, helping dreams come true. Thank you.”

Last week, Evans said Ping and Pong was a “working title” for his babies, and that he was considering using them as middle names.

He told Janet Jackson, a guest on his Breakfast Show: “We call them Ping and Pong because they are the unborns. We have a working title!”

But he added: “It’s so cute I want to keep them as the names Ping and Pong.”
