Calvin Harris and Vick Hope Welcome Son Micah in Heartfelt Home Birth Celebration
Elena West here, and today is your moment to witness a heartwarming celebrity update that underscores the power of love and new beginnings.
Get ready – this announcement is pure joy and motivation. On July 20, global hitmaker Calvin Harris and his “superhero” wife Vick Hope welcomed their first child, a son named Micah, in the comfort of their own home. The famed DJ, whose legal name is Adam Richard Wiles, took to Instagram on August 4 to share the news, writing, “Micah is here. My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah.” These authentic words from Harris highlight the deep bond he shares with Hope and their brand-new baby boy.
This intimate home birth featured an inflatable pool in their living room, a detail Harris proudly revealed alongside a series of candid photos. In one image, the new parents cradle their precious newborn together in golden sunlight. In another, Calvin gently supports Micah’s tiny head as he basks in his father’s arms. The couple even opted for a holistic postpartum practice by dehydrating Vick’s placenta and encapsulating it into pills, a choice they described as part of their journey toward natural wellness.
Vick Hope, the 35-year-old BBC radio host and former presenter on the Katie and Jamie morning show, had hinted at her maternity leave earlier this spring. On the Katie and Jamie broadcast in May, she announced, “I should probably also say this is my final week before I go on maternity leave.” Co-host Jamie Laing celebrated her, saying, “You’re an amazing friend, an amazing person, and you’re just going to be an amazing mum.” That moment set the stage for this life-changing arrival.
The pair tied the knot in 2023 after a whirlwind romance that began that summer. Despite their high-profile careers—Harris as the chart-topping producer behind hits like “We Found Love” and Hope as a dynamic radio personality—they intentionally shielded most of the pregnancy journey from the spotlight. The duo revealed the pregnancy publicly in April, but chose to keep updates low-key after the glitz when Harris proposed last year stirred massive media interest. “I was very overwhelmed by the interest in it,” Hope explained to Hello! Magazine, stressing that they wanted to guard these precious moments for themselves.
Even as they maintained their privacy, Vick proudly displayed her baby bump at events like BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend and shared sweet Instagram snapshots captioned with phrases like “june bloom.” These glimpses built excitement among fans who were eager to celebrate with them once the big day arrived.
Now that Micah is here, parents and industry insiders alike are praising the couple for their bold decision to embrace a home birth and holistic postpartum choices. As we reflect on this joyous news, remember that every new chapter begins with intention and courage. Calvin and Vick turned a personal milestone into an inspiring story that reminds all of us: when you follow your heart, miracles happen.
