Calvin Harris Reveals Arrival of First Child & Posts Placenta Photos: ‘My Wife Is a Superhero’ as he and his wife, Vick Hope, embrace parenthood for the first time.
The Scottish DJ and producer took to Instagram on Monday (Aug. 4) to share the joyful news. Posting a heartwarming photo of himself cradling their newborn son, Micah, Harris captioned the post:
“20th of July our boy arrived. Micah is here! My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah.”
Unique Birth Photos Spark Conversation
The carousel of photos included touching moments of Hope in a water birth tank, along with a surprising image of what appeared to be her placenta. Harris even showed parts of the placenta in a food dehydrator, followed by a jar of supplements seemingly made from it.
While the practice may raise eyebrows, placenta consumption has grown more common, with many claiming it helps new mothers during postpartum recovery.
Harris’ History of Unconventional Health Habits
This isn’t the first time the hitmaker has shared his interest in alternative health practices. Just last year, Harris revealed that he regularly drinks raw egg yolks to combat jetlag—often carrying six eggs in his travel bag.
Celebrity Friends Send Congratulations
The announcement quickly lit up with well-wishes from fellow music stars, including Armin van Buuren, Chris Lake, Sonny Fodera, and Kygo, among many others.
A New Chapter for Harris & Hope
The couple tied the knot in England in 2023, marking the first marriage for both. Their family milestone arrives as Harris continues to make waves on the charts. His latest single, “Blessings” featuring Clementine Douglas, is in its eleventh week on the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart, currently sitting at No. 5 after peaking at No. 3.
