Sadness and pride as star confirms death of baby son

A series of tributes have flooded in from colleagues and fellow celebrities.

Zack, who is better known to millions as Steel in the BBC's Gladiators, confirmed that Leo had died just a few days on from his birth.

The 34-year-old, from Sileby, described his son as "our lion" in an Instagram post and added that he and his wife Samantha would "love you more than you will ever know".

The post read: "Your mummy brought you into this world and your daddy held you as you left. Leo, you showed us what the true definition of strength is and we are so proud of you.
