Take That send flowers to mum who gave birth at their Birmingham concert
Nov 20 2007 By Alison Dayani, Birmingham Mail
TAKE That let their kindness 'Shine' through by sending a personal message and gift to a fan who went into labour at their concert.
Gary Barlow and the boys wanted to congratulate new mum Louise Morris, whose waters broke two months early as she eagerly waited for the band to come on stage at Birmingham NEC.
The 33-year-old teacher at Moat Hall Primary School, in Great Wyrley, near Cannock, gave birth within hours to baby girl Clementine, weighing just 6lb 14oz.
But after hearing about the incident, Gary, Mark, Howard and Jason showed how deep their love was by sending the new mum a bouquet of flowers to the hospital.
Gary Barlow said: "We sent the flowers to Louise on Saturday after hearing her good news.
"We wanted to say many congratulations to the mum and we are pleased to hear that they are doing well."
Louise and 32-year-old accountant partner Justin Wilkes, from Telford, are closely watching over their 'Babe' at Heartlands Hospital neonatal unit.
The Birmingham Mail yesterday revealed how the couple were at the Take That concert on Friday night when contractions started.
The start of the show was delayed while stewards carried Louise out of the arena to wait for an ambulance.
The Heartlands neonatal unit is currently trying to raise £300,000 for new equipment. Call 0121 424 2395 or email fundrais
