Stevie G: Boy completes my family

- BY NICOLA FIFIELD

LIVERPOOL legend Steven Gerrard said yesterday his family is “complete” after the arrival of his first son.

The star’s wife Alex, 34, gave birth to Lio George – their fourth child – in the early hours.

Kop hero Gerrard, 36, shared the news on Instagram by posting a black and white image of Liverpool’s iconic Liver Birds with the words: “It’s a boy!”

He told his 5.9 million followers: “Lio George Gerrard was born this morning at 4.55am. Both are doing great. Our family is complete.”

He and model Alex, who wed in 2007, already have daughters Lilly-ella, 13, Lexie, 10, and Lourdes, five. Alex announced she was pregnant in November, uploading a cute photo to Twitter of the couple’s three girls looking at an ultrasound scan image and saying: “We are all very excited!!”

The birth comes at the end of a week in which ex-england ace Gerrard, 36, was confirmed as the manager of Liverpool’s Under-18s for next season.
