ON MEND: Davenport

STABBED soccer star Calum Davenport was overjoyed last night after becoming a dad again.

The West Ham United defender's wife Zoey gave birth to a healthy 8lb baby girl early on Friday.

He was left fighting for his life and then his football career after he was stabbed several times in both legs on August 22.

Calum, 26 who has a four-year-old girl with Zoey, spent six days in intensive care after the attack at his mother's Bedford home but he has since been told he will play again.

Zoey and baby Anara are both doing well at home and a pal said: "Calum and Zoey are so happy."

His sister Cara's boyfriend Worrell Whitehurst, 25, of Derby, is charged with GBH with intent.

Calum is charged with causing ABH to Cara, 28.
