Joel Dommett couldn’t disguise his shock when he saw that his wife Hannah Cooper had framed their baby’s umbilical cord like a picture.
The married pair became parents for the first time in September when their son, Wilde Cooper-Dommett, was born, and they have been engulfed in a bubble of newborn happiness ever since.
Hannah, 33, surprised husband Joel, 38, with a new piece of art – baby Wilde’s umbilical chord in a picture frame – in the newest edition of their podcast Never Have I Ever.
‘What’s this?’ Survivor host Joel asked, to which Hannah proudly revealed: ‘It’s my umbilical cord framed in a glitter frame.’
Joel moaned and buried his face in his hands, plainly ashamed.
However, his wife told him casually: ‘It’s stunning, it’s beautiful, it’s me, it’s our child. It’s how our child was fed, Joel.
‘It’s my umbilical cord shaped in a heart.’
Joel didn’t seem impressed by the shape and questioned: ‘Is that a heart though?’
He then jokingly suggested: ‘If they flipped one of them, you could have put it into the [numbers] 69.’
Hannah quipped back: ‘That would be inappropriate, wouldn’t it?’
The couple’s podcast listeners seemed unconvinced by the artwork, with one commenting on Instagram: ‘Nobody wants to see that framed on a wall,’ along with a cry-laughing emoji.
Another said: ‘Oh god it’s worse than I imagined.’
One other listener joked: ‘That’s getting flung in a drawer at some point eh Joel?’

Sharing their thoughts on the unique shape of the umbilical cord, one added: ‘It looks like 2 ET ‘s kissing each other. Sorry!’
Another laughed: ‘He’s excited to drink your breast milk as soon as possible, but grossed out by this 😂 boy math.’
They were alluding to an earlier podcast episode in which Joel expressed his willingness to consume breast milk.
Hannah said: ‘I am a little bit fearful that you’re going to make a breast milk flat white.’
Joel responded: ‘Yeah. I also don’t get this thing where people are like “uuurgh breast milk, uuurgh”. Like no, give me that, please.’
After three years together, the couple married in 2019 and announced the arrival of their son in September with a black and white snapshot of the tot’s feet.
‘Wilde Cooper-Dommett. Pinterest perfect baby feet that are already bigger than his Dad’s,’ they wrote.
