Brooke has also confirmed that she’s named her bundle of joy Monroe.
The proud mum took to Instagram on Thursday to share the first snap of the newborn, who was born on Tuesday (May 4).
She wrote: “In the morning of Tuesday 4th May at 8.14am; the exact same time as his big brother .. our little boy came into the world.
“Monroe S J Bryan you’ve added so much love & happiness to our little family! Me, your daddy & big brother are all besotted with you.”

A representative for Brooke confirmed to OK! Magazine that mum and baby are doing well.
They told the publication: “Brooke and Kean are thrilled and mum and baby are settling in well.”
Brooke confirmed she was expecting her second child in November .
Opening up about her pregnancy at the time, the brunette star said she was more excited than nervous about having two children that are under the age of two.
Brooke said to OK!: “I’m quite chilled about it. I’m really lucky with Mexx, because he’s a good baby.
But I just think to myself, ‘You don’t have any other option!’ So if he’s up all night crying, I can’t give him to anyone, so I have to just deal with it.
“It’s a perk having them together and growing together – that’s what I really wanted.”
Brooke joined the cast of Corrie back in 2004 as Sophie Webster when she was just 11-years-old.
She has been on maternity leave from the soap since 2019, with her last scenes airing that October.
