Comedian Joe Lycett’s Heartfelt Tribute to Birmingham Women’s Hospital and Fatherhood Journey
Comedian Joe Lycett recently took to social media to share a touching appreciation post for Birmingham Women’s Hospital, praising the exceptional care provided to his family. Recalling his first experience with the hospital years ago, when they supported a friend through surgery, Lycett expressed gratitude for the hospital’s compassionate care, especially during the recent birth of his son.
In his post, Lycett highlighted the dedication of the hospital’s staff—midwives, consultants, doctors, and nurses—who extended their warmth and expertise from antenatal classes to postnatal care. Alongside his appreciation, Lycett shared his love for the hospital’s unique charm, including its renowned baked potatoes, emphasizing Birmingham’s luck in having such a remarkable institution.
Transitioning to fatherhood, Lycett humorously mentioned that this new chapter might mean he can’t avoid guest appearances on the podcast hosted by comedians Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe. Adding a comedic twist, he announced that they’d already “sold the rights” for their first family photo—to none other than Autotrader, a lighthearted jab in typical Lycett fashion.
As fans showered Lycett with messages of congratulations, this heartwarming update from the comedian continues to resonate, celebrating both his gratitude for Birmingham’s healthcare heroes and the joys of his newfound role as a dad.
