New dad Jake Quickenden wears a nose plug as he changes son Leo’s nappy after ‘nappy explosion’

NEW dad Jake Quickenden was forced to slip on a nose plug today after his son Leo treated him to a “nappy explosion”.

The cute newborn left his parents in a flap when his dirty nappy failed to contain the epic poop, which seeped out the sides of his baby grow.

Leo was wide awake and he took no notice of his famous dad having a meltdown while changing him.

The X Factor singer made his fans laugh when he shared his reaction on his Instagram story, saying: “This is the worst one he’s ever done! Bless his little heart.”

Jake, 32, filmed himself wearing the nose plug, but still gagged at the smell.

He added: “Right, I’m going to soak this.”

The Dancing On Ice winner and his girlfriend Sophie Church have been sharing their parenting journey with fans since they had little Leo in February.

Just last week, Jake said he was left feeling “frustrated” after Leo experienced “pain” and mysteriously fell ill.

He shared an adorable father-son selfie and captioned the post: “IT’S FRIDAY….. morning sorry I look like a thumb but Leo looks cute, we are trying to have a lay in but Leo’s wide awake!!

“How my days have changed, Leo’s been unsettled again last few days the milk change has helped a lot but I think he still has reflux.

“We have to wait a few more days to see, but if he doesn’t settle the doctor has something for him, it’s been a long old road and it’s been frustrating for us all not knowing why he’s in pain and unsettled!!

“It’s about eliminating all the possibilities!! Hopefully he will be smiling soon and more settled!! God he’s cute though.”

Jake also admitted that he was struggling with parenthood and feared his son hates him in a candid post last month.


Jake has shared many positive moments too. Fans were delighted after Leo met his grandma Lisa for the first time.

The reality star marked the special occasion by sharing an adorable snap of his mum looking fondly at the baby as he cradled him.

Alongside the touching image, an emotional Jake wrote: “I could cry I’m so happy…. mum’s arrived @orchardlodge_home thanks to everyone who let me know I could have a bubble, I wasn’t even aware of it!!”
