Evie was unveiled to the public on Tuesday (20 May), when Good Morning Britain presenter Richard Arnold shared the first “photos” of the newborn live on air.
“Daddy Pig has just shared these pictures with me of Peppa’s brand new baby sister Evie, named after Mummy Pig’s Aunt Evie. She was born at 5.34am this morning,” Mr Arnold announced.

In true celebrity fashion, Evie’s gender was revealed in April with a dramatic light-up of the iconic Battersea Power Station chimneys in London — glowing pink to signify that Peppa was getting a little sister.

The Peppa Pig family now consists of Peppa, George, Mummy Pig, Daddy Pig, and the newest member, baby Evie, who is expected to make her on-screen debut later this year.
To mark Evie’s arrival, the show will be releasing a one-hour special titled ‘Peppa Meets The Baby’ on 30 May.
Fans can expect ten musical episodes featuring Peppa and George preparing for their baby sister’s arrival, guaranteed to be an adorable watch for little ones and nostalgic parents alike.
According to the South China Morning Post, baby Evie will officially become a regular character in the series from autumn 2025.
