Daughter of UK’s first gay fathers welcomes second baby into millionaire’s life
The daughter of the UK’s first gay fathers has revealed she has just given birth to her second child.
Saffron Drewitt-Barlow, 24, announced the birth of her son on Instagram to celebrate with family and friends.
The brunette beauty is the daughter of Britain’s first gay fathers, ex-couple and multi-millionaires Barrie and Tony Drewitt-Barlow and is the ultimate daddy’s girl.
Saffron, who already has a one-year-old daughter, Marina, wrote on Instagram: “Conor Junior Drewitt-Barlow-Tucker.”
“We are so in love with you, darling.”
The little boy was named after his father and was born in Essex.

But the last time Saffron gave birth, in June last year, her father celebrated the news of their new family with a gift.
Barrie gave his eldest daughter a Range Rover worth £200,000 as a promotional gift.
The 51-year-old Manchester businessman, who has a fortune of £200million, told Fabulous at the time: “Saffron is doing so well.
“I bought her a new Range Rover Vogue which cost $250,000 (£200,000), but at home in Miami we already have a fleet of cars including Lamborghini G-wagons and Rolls.
“We bought her a whole wardrobe because she complained that she didn’t fit into anything. We decided to do the same for the baby and her husband, so we had our stylist go to Prada and all the designer stores.”
Barrie previously revealed that he has given little Marina a £1million house, which they will rent out to provide the little man with an income, so we can only guess what is in store for Conor Junior.
Saffron and her husband Conor got married in Vegas last year and are moving to Miami for a while, but it seems they have moved back to Manchester to be closer to their family.
Barrie hasn’t said anything public about the good news for his family yet, but we’re curious to see what goodies he has in store for his new grandchild.
Saffron’s fans congratulated her en masse in the comments below this post.
Someone wrote: “So beautiful! Congratulations.”
Who are Tony and Barrie Drewitt-Barlow?
BARRIE Drewitt-Barlow and ex-husband Tony were Britain’s first gay fathers. They had twins, a boy and a girl, through surrogacy.
The couple met in 1987 when Tony stopped at a petrol station in Manchester to ask for directions.
Tony had won second prize in the New Scientist of the Year Award at the time.
The couple went to court to get permission to list same-sex parents on birth certificates as “parent one” and “parent two” instead of “mother and father.” It was a landmark case for the LGBTQ community.
Saffron and Aspen were conceived using the eggs of one woman, Tracie McCune, and were then carried in the womb of another woman, Rosalind Bellany.
Although Barrie and Tony both have a child, they have never revealed which father is the biological father of which twins, as they want to be equal parents.
They have made their money from various business ventures, including a transatlantic surrogacy business and a global medical research company. They also make money from real estate.
The couple split in 2019 after Barrie confirmed he was in love with his daughter Saffron’s ex, Scott.
Another commented: “Congratulations everyone.”
“He’s perfect,” wrote a third.
Meanwhile, a fourth said: “God bless you and your little family.”
“Congratulations,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “Congratulations!”
