Two babies were born on New Year’s day this year.

First of 2021 was Beau Peter Roberts, who was born at 5.54am weighing 8lb 4oz.

He is the first child of Pete Roberts and Kate Gordon, from Ramsey.

Both work as private yacht crew, which is also how they met.

Pete lives in the UK and had travelled back for the birth, getting out of isolation just in time on December 30.

Kate said: ’It was like the little one was holding on for him, everything aligned.’

She also thanked the team at the Jane Crookall maternity unit, who she said were ’absolutely fantastic.’

Second was Bella Rose Allen, born at 12.05pm to another Ramsey couple, weighing 7lb 11 oz. She is the second daughter of Alicia Allanson and Kyle Allen, who works in removals. Her sister Phoebe was born in November 2019.
