Over the years, I’ve made many official proclamations but never one like this!

“Evie Pig was born at 5:34am this morning at London’s St Mary’s Hospital.”

Yup, you read that correctly!

The Peppa Pig family has grown now that Mummy Pig gave birth earlier today to a healthy baby girl pig. The new baby is named Evie and her siblings, Peppa and George, are said to be delighted to have a new sister and playmate.

Mummy Pig made the news a few weeks ago when she announced she was having a gender-reveal party.

News of Evie’s arrival featured on news channels around the world. Check out this great video of an Australian news programme which seems to suggest I might even be Evie’s father because I’m “big and pink”! The cheeky bunch!
