Brooke also revealed how she chose the name Mexx for his son, saying she likes the fact he has an ‘unusual’ name.
She said: ‘I’ve always loved it and when we found out we were having a baby, Kean loved it too and wasn’t sure if it was actually a name.
‘But then I looked into it when I was pregnant and it means “the greatest” so for us it was perfect. I love I know nobody else with his name too! I think sometimes it’s nice to have an unusual name.’
