The year-old, whose parents Rex and Liz still live in Stoke Holy Cross, just south of Norwich, said: 'We are keen for Florence to have a Norfolk upbringing and are looking for a home in Norfolk.
We will move as soon as we've found somewhere — as soon as we've found a nice, country house. Jake, who initially launched his screen career with Anglia TV, is best known for his Formula One motor racing coverage but left the role last year to become anchor of BT Vision's Barclays Premier League football coverage.
As he makes plans to move back to Norfolk, together with Harriet, he brought young Florence to the county for the first time at the weekend where she was able to meet her newborn cousins Edward and Francis. But she sleeps very well. He said during Florence's birth, her umbilical cord became wrapped around her neck, sending the sports presenter's heart racing.
They did what they needed to do very quickly and the staff at the hospital were brilliant. He added: 'It's going brilliantly. In terms of the birth, I now think that for the woman it is terribly physically demanding but any young men should prepare themselves for how mentally demanding it is. There were a couple of moments when you think about the stories you have read and seen and you think you didn't want that to happen.
A minute or so afterwards, I was able to see her. We didn't have that romantic moment of cutting the umbilical cord but she was fine and she is fantastic. He said there was no particular reason why they chose the name Florence but just because they liked it and it means flowering or in bloom, in Latin. Had they had a boy, they would have named him Sebastian — but Jake said he was relieved Florence was a girl.
Meanwhile, despite his demanding work commitments, the Community Sports Foundation ambassador and Break patron is trying to be there for his wife and daughter as much as possible.
He said: 'I've always wanted to be a dad who is involved and although it's not great, being up at 3am when you've got to get up to go to work a few hours later, someone recently reminded me to make the most of those days of being with and speaking to your baby daughter in those early days as they soon go by. He added: 'Harriet is loving it. She's not at work and she's really enjoying being a full-time mum. It's hard when I'm working 12 to 13 hour days.
Just being with the baby is quite a full on experience, but my sister, who gave birth to her third child just a month before Florence was born, and my sister-in-law, who has just had a baby too, have been a great help. Harriet and I are even stronger and closer than before Florence was born. The father said he "can't thank Jake enough" for sharing his fundraising page to his , followers on Twitter.
Humphrey said the experience was the "greatest" moment he has had online. Speaking at the fun day in Letchworth, Humphrey said he did not take any credit for the money raised.
Lots of people will lose a child but they won't go and do was Ross has done. Mr Coniam had to postpone one of nine challenges, the Great North Run on Tyneside, due to an injury, but hopes to complete it next year instead.
Among the challenges he has completed are the London Marathon and a mile walk from Gloucestershire to his daughter's grave. Bereaved dad's mile walk to daughter's grave. Baby appeal tweet 'highlight' for TV star. Thousands raised after TV star tweet.
