Fans were left overjoyed and rushed to the comments to congratulate the BBC presenter. One person wrote: "Congrats grandpa Don. Gorgeous name!" while another added: "Congratulations to all the family and grandparents, a precious grandson and now a precious granddaughter. You have definitely got to name two rose trees after them both."

Besides Adam, the 66-year-old shares two other grown-up children, Tom and Freya, with his wife Sarah. The couple are already proud grandparents to two-year-old George, who was born in 2019. 

The news comes after Monty was absent from another episode of Gardeners' World on Friday evening.

Fans took to Twitter to question the star's absence, with one person writing: "This week's episode of gardeners world is all about houseplants. But where is Monty?" while another added: "What a lovely program that was on Friday, very interesting. I’m hoping Monty is keeping well?? I've been a keen follower of Gardeners World for many years."

The star was also absent from last week's instalment of the show as he was busy giving talks and gardening demonstrations at this year's RHS's Malvern Spring Festival.
