"We are so grateful for this beautiful blessing," Eva and José told the magazine, sharing an image of their newborn baby boy, wearing a cute little hat. 

Santiago's birth comes two years after the couple married in an intimate sunset ceremony in Mexico.

Speaking about the chances of starting a family with José following their wedding, Eva told E!: "Right now I am a step mum to three amazing kids, and I've had my hands full, and they are amazing and wonderful. It's been a lot of fun, a lot of fun being a step mum.

"It if happens, it happens — if it's meant to be it would be a blessing."

Media manager José already has three children - José, Tali and Mariana - from his former marriage to Mexican actress Natalia Esperón.
