NameHolly Valance’s father-in-law, Tony Candy, died six weeks before the birth of her first child, but she has made sure that his name will live on.
The former Strictly Come Dancing contestant and her husband, Nick Candy, have given their daughter the name Toni.
“She was born a few days ago,” Candy tells Mandrake at the Wonderland Ball held by the Reuben Foundation to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital. “We have decided to call her Luka Violet Toni Candy.”
The property developer says: “Her nickname will be LuLu, but, obviously, if she ever goes into business, LuLu Candy just doesn’t quite work. My father’s nickname was always TC.”
Holly, 30, who starred in the Australian soap opera Neighbours before becoming a pop star and television presenter, did not attend the event at Bridgewater House in Westminster, where guests included Princess Beatrice.

23 Nov 2013“Holly is at home,” her husband says. “We aren’t having any help at the moment. Holly doesn’t want any; she wants to do it all ourselves at this stage, but that might change – it has only been a few days.”
Candy, 40, adds: “She is a perfect mother. It was a natural birth. She is from a big Australian family, with younger siblings, so she knows exactly what she is doing.
“It is such a shame that dad died six weeks before Luka was born, but I had the best role model possible in him, so, hopefully, if I can be anything like the father he was to me, when it comes to raising Luka, we’ll be onto a winner.”

David Dimbleby, the broadcaster, has revealed that he has got his first tattoo at the age of 75.
The Question Time presenter told the Radio Times that he had a "modest" image of a scorpion tattooed on his right shoulder.
Referring to singer Cheryl Cole's tattoo on her bottom, he said that he "wasn't tempted to have any private parts decorated".
But Dimbleby told the magazine that he was delighted with the result.
"You are only old once. I have always wanted a tattoo. I thought I might as well have it done now. It's a dream come true for me," he said.

07 Nov 2013Dimbleby, who has been presenting the BBC's general election coverage since 1979, got the tattoo while making the maritime series Britain And The Sea, set for broadcast later this month.
The commentator and presenter was offered the chance to have his own piece of body art while looking at how tattoos were introduced to the UK as a result of Captain Cook's South Seas adventures.
He turned down the offer, thinking he was too old, and had a mark put on his body in black pencil instead.
But Dimbleby told the magazine: "When I saw it in a preview of the film I thought 'That's a bit feeble.' I thought it was wimpish having it just drawn on and I needed to man up."
Followed by cameramen, he visited the Vagabond tattoo studio in east London.
"It took about 30 minutes - an hour in all - and I thought of Winston Churchill having his done while mine was being done. It wasn't painful at all, it just zings a bit. It's modest," he said.
"It can't be seen unless I choose to show it to someone. I'm rather fond of it actually, this little scorpion sitting on my shoulder ready to attack my enemies."
Dimbleby said that he decided to have the scorpion because Scorpio is his star sign.
"It's beautifully done, actually. It's a work of art. They have these 3D tattoos now that are done using photographs, which are just astonishing, but I wasn't about to have one myself.
"And then there's Cheryl Cole's bottom," he said of the singer, whose derriere and lower back are now entirely covered with an image of roses.
"I wasn't tempted to have any private parts decorated, I have to tell you. I thought the shoulder was the most discreet place. I didn't want it on my arm because it would show every time I rolled up my sleeve."
Dimbleby said that he might be able to persuade his wife Belinda to get a tattoo, adding: "I think she's mildly amused. I believe she wanted a tattoo once, but has never got around to it."
