Former Doctor Who star Billie Piper has given birth to her second son with husband Laurence Fox.

The 29-year-old actress is said to be doing well after the birth, while Fox has tweeted about his joy.

"One born every minute. We had our minute today. Couldn't be happier. Beautiful boy. Everything fine," he tweeted.

The couple, who have a three-year-old son called Winston, have not yet revealed a name for the baby.

After finding out she was pregnant, Piper offered to pull out of her latest role in Neil LaBute's play Reasons To Be Pretty.

Instead, LaBute wrote her pregnancy into the part to explain her baby bump.

Shortly after Winston's birth in 2008, Piper revealed she was keen to have more children with Fox.

"I would like to have three children. I'm thinking of having two close together and leaving it a while, then having another," she said.

"It's really hard to put into words just how fantastic being a mum is. I really do love it. Life is so much better for having had Winston and I feel warmer as a person."

Piper, a former pop singer, wed Fox in 2007. She was previously married to DJ Chris Evans.
