He and his wife Kristi welcomed their first child, a daughter named Leni last week.

In an interview with New Idea, Blair explained that little Leni "decided to be fashionably late," after Kristi gave birth several days overdue.

"She got off to a bit of a slow start," he joked.

Speaking about the birth, Blair went on to say that, "Kristi was in labour for almost 36 hours. By the end we were all pretty exhausted, even me!"

Congratulations Blair and Kristi!
