Harry Styles stands in last minute as The Late Late Show host

Harry Styles had to step in last minute for James Corden last night (December 12) to host The Late Late Show.

Corden was absent because he was with his wife Julia Carey as they welcomed their third child into the world.

Styles revealed the news to the excited audience just half an hour after the baby was born, having rushed from the hospital where he had been with the happy couple before his appearance on the show. The "Kiwi" singer told the audience: 

"Just a half hour ago, James and his beautiful wife Jules had a baby girl.

"In fact, I was just at the hospital before I came to fill in, and she looks a lot like James... mainly because James looks like a giant baby."

Corden thanked his friend Styles for replacing him for the evening on the show whilst he stayed with his wife and new tot, saying:

"Thank you Harry for stepping in to host the show at 2 and a half hours notice! x x x."
