Who's the daddy! Ex-Time Lord David Tennant's baby Olive makes her debut

By Daily Mail Reporter for Daily Mail
Former Doctor Who star David Tennant and his actress fiancee Georgia Moffett have kept baby Olive away from prying eyes since her birth a couple of weeks ago.

But the glorious sunshine appears to have tempted grandma, actress Sandra Dickinson, and daughter Georgia to take their young charge out for a stroll for the first time in public yesterday.

The 62-year-old American and 26-year-old Miss Moffett were spotted in West London, proudly pushing the new addition to the family in her pram.

Tennant met actress Georgia when she appeared alongside him in a 2008 episode of the long-running series, playing his character’s daughter Jenny.

The secretive couple, who became engaged over Christmas, have remained steadfastly quiet about their relationship.

A friend said: ‘They did very well in keeping everything very nearly private and keeping things under wraps. Georgia was a lot more pregnant than people thought when the news first broke.

Tennant had spoken openly about his desire to become a father last year, saying: ‘It feels an important thing to do and I’d hate to miss out on it. I’m  only 38 but my parents had had three kids by this age and I have had none yet.’
Sandra meanwhile appears to be happy in the role of grandmother.

Georgia is Miss Dickinson’s daughter by former Doctor Who star Peter Davison.

Miss Dickinson, whose squeaky voice and perky personality made her a hit in shows such as The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy, was married to Davison for 16 years.

But they divorced in 1994 and she later said: ‘My spirit was dying. Peter’s complete disregard for me made me realise I deserved more, that I deserved the chance of finding happiness again.’

In 2009 she married British actor Mark Osmond, who is 20 years her junior. The couple met in 2002 when appearing in the pantomime Aladdin in Dorset.

Olive is the second child for Miss Moffet. The actress already has a son called Ty, born when she was just 17 although she has never publicly named his father.
