"But yeah, we have got another baby and it has been nice spending time with him," the former cricketer added. Preston is couple's third boy, and is named so in order to pay homage to Preston city in Lancashire where Flintoff was born.

Holly (15), Corey (14) and Rocky (12) are the couple's other three children. The couple first met way back in 2002 during an event at Edgbaston Cricket Ground. After dating for around three years, the duo got married in 2005. Interestingly, in 2016 Flintoff had said that he was not looking to expand his family. "We thought about it. I originally wanted five but you have three and that felt like enough. I couldn't go back to the nappy stage now."

Flintoff retired from Tests in 2009 and then in 2019 he retired from all forms of cricket. He has featured in 79 Tests, 141 ODIs and seven T20Is for England.
