DARTS hero Stephen Bunting has broken his silence after welcoming a baby to the world nine months after his Masters glory.
The 39-year-old revealed on Thursday that his partner Keila gave birth to their second son Theo.

Just two days later, Bunting was back at the oche beating Wessel Nijman 5-4 in his Grand Slam of Darts opener.
After the victory, Bunting was asked about how his baby and wife are.
And he was also quizzed on fans working out that baby Theo was born nine months after he won the PDC Masters final against Michael van Gerwen in February.
On the timing, Bunting said with a cheeky grin: “I’m saying nothing. But there will not be another baby.”
Keila fully supported her husband’s decision to play this week, saying: “I had her full blessing to come, obviously it has been a bit difficult.
“But they are getting discharged from hospital today and that has been a Godsend.
“I’ve got my other lad here putting me through my paces and my manager is here looking after me.
“I am away from Theo, but I know he is getting well looked after by Keila and her mum, there is family around.

“If I keep winning, we will all be in a good position.”
Bunting also said: “It’s massive motivation and it is great to be a dad for the second time, just the emotion of the last few days, it has been up and down.
“But I am fully focused on the darts, I can go home, I can FaceTime Theo and my missus.”
Bunting announced the birth with a touching social media post that read: “Myself, Keila and Tobias would like to introduce you to the newest member of the Bunting household.
“Thanks for all the well wishes and messages. Much appreciated. Mother and baby doing fine.”
Bunting faces Josh Rock next at the Grand Slam of Darts.
