'Welcome to the new love of our lives into this world,' he captioned the sweet snap that sees the newborn's tiny toes poking out of a grey and white stripped onesie.

While his MKR contestants have been cooking up a storm in the kitchen, Manu has been quietly brewing over this project of his own. 

The reality star, who also has a 11-year-old son from a previous relationship, told Daily Mail Australia last month that he was excited about the birth.

He also revealed that he and Clarissa had to change their wedding plans after they fell pregnant before they could set a date for their walk down the aisle. 

'The baby came before...' Manu said, 'We were supposed to get married first so everything has been changed!' 

Just last week, the handsome restauranter helped his son Jonti and a young friend of his celebrate their eleventh birthdays.

An elaborate birthday cake in the shape of a basketball court and complete with little player statuettes was ordered to make the day a special one.
