Peppa Pig welcomes baby sister as name and first photos revealed
ITV's Good Morning Britain presenter Richard Arnold on Tuesday shared the first photographs of baby Evie.
Arnold said: 'Daddy Pig has just shared these pictures with me of Peppa's brand new baby sister Evie, named after Mummy Pig's Aunt Evie, she was born at 5.34am this morning.'
A post shared by Peppa Pig (@officialpeppa)
The gender of the baby was revealed in April when the chimneys of Battersea Power Station were lit up in pink to show Mummy Pig was expecting another girl.
The animated show later announced an hour-long screening format, Peppa Meets The Baby, which is due to come out on May 30 and will feature 10 new song-filled episodes as Peppa and George prepare for the arrival of their sister.
Evie is expected to appear on screen in the series from autumn.
A special set of stamps have also been issued to mark the 20th anniversary of the popular children's TV series featuring Peppa and her friends.
The stamps include Peppa and George, Suzy Sheep, Danny Dog, Daddy Pig, Mummy Pig, Grandpa and Granny Pig in the main set, as well as a miniature sheet showing the characters having fun at a party.
Co-created by Neville Astley and Mark Baker, from animation studio Astley Baker Davies, the series first aired in 2004 on Channel 5 Milkshake and Nick Jr.
It has since been broadcast in more than 40 languages and is available in over 180 territories.
It was acquired by toy company Hasbro in 2019 as part of its purchase of Entertainment One's brands.
Good Morning Britain can be watched on weekdays from 6am on ITV1, ITVX, STV & STV Player.

Heartbroken Love Island star reveals shock miscarriage – and why they blame themselves for losing the baby
CELEBRITY: SAS star Adam C ollard has blamed his bad boy past for the miscarriage his fiancée L aura Woods suffered. The ex-Love Island hunk opened up about the devastating loss, which occurred just months before he took part in the brutal Channel 4 series, admitting he felt it was 'bad karma' for his unsavoury behaviour on the ITV2 dating show. 3 3 ITV football host Laura fell pregnant a month later and gave birth to their first child in January, but Adam says the miscarriage at 11 weeks resulted in mental torture — and a reflection on his past. He explained: 'I know it's a terrible way to look at it, but I felt like it was bad karma for me being on dating shows and upsetting too many people. "I felt like that was some high power's way of being like, 'Well, there you go, that's what you have to carry'. "So it was a lot and I've worked on it now, but before SAS, I didn't get a chance. It was so soon.' Personal trainer Adam began dating Laura, who fronted the recent Women's Euros coverage, in October 2023 and they got engaged last September. Adam was once a major lothario, appearing on Love Island in 2018 and again in 2022, when he was brought back as a bombshell. He says one of the reasons he signed up for Celebrity, which starts on Sunday, was to prove he is now a changed man, admitting: 'I was just a cocky little p***k, being a love rat jumping from girl to girl. "I want to show I'm not that man any more. "I've changed so much. The people back home know me for me. "And I think that's what the nice thing is about SAS, you'll see who I am now.' Laura Woods gives Adam Collard a telling off as they watch Newcastle vs Arsenal and reveal who their baby is supporting There's certainly no hiding place on the show. 3
