Bert and Patti Newton's daughter Lauren and her former Olympic swim star husband Matt Welsh have welcomed their fourth baby: Monty Matthew Newton Welsh.
Monty Matthew – his middle name in honour of his dad, his late maternal great-grandfather, and his uncle, actor Matthew Newton – made his entrance three weeks early by caesarean at 2.12pm on February 18 at Freemasons Hospital, Melbourne.

‘The pregnancy was a beautiful surprise, but it was pretty busy having three other kids. We didn’t think it was going to happen a fourth time, so we’re thrilled to get a perfect, beautiful child like Monty,' the 36-year-old revealed.
