The TV presenter Victoria Coren Mitchell has announced The Birth of her Second Child with comedian David Mitchell .

Coren Mitchell, 51, who is best known for hosting BBC Quiz Show Only Connect , welcomed June Violet Mitchell last week.

She gave birth to her First Daughter Barbara, with David, 49, in 2015.

The News comes after Coren Mitchell posted a picture of herself in a red cloak at Halloween .

on Wednesday, Coren Mitchell said: " Many people are assuming my tweet yesterday was a Halloween costume.

She added: " Not at all; last week I had a baby and nothing currently fits me except cloaks. Luckily, Only Connect is a pre-record. Happy All Saints Day! "

The Birth was also shared in The Times on Wednesday, with a statement that reads: " On 26th October 2023 to Victoria and David, a daughter, June Violet sister to Barbara. "

Coren Mitchell, who is also a professional Poker Player , married David Mitchell in 2012, two years after confirming their relationship.

Mitchell is best known for playing Mark in comedy sitcom Peep Show and for his work with co-collaborator Robert Webb .

The pair met at Jonathan Ross 's Halloween Party in 2007, with Mitchell saying in his autobiography Back Story that he was " hopelessly in love" despite Coren Mitchell being in a relationship with Someone Else at The Time .

" I told No One about it. I didn't tell my closest friends or my parents of the enormous sadness that overshadowed My Life , " he wrote.

Coren Mitchell has kept her pregnancy concealed from viewers and fans on Social Media , by saying she was " taking a little sabbatical" from her TV column for The Telegraph.

She also hosted an episode of Have I Got News For You on Bbc One on 6 October.
