"Mum and daughter are doing amazing. Born Tuesday 2nd April 2024, 7lb 3oz and thankfully very healthy.

The singer-turned-reality star continued: "Baby has been spoilt with cuddles from Junior, Princess, Amelia and Theo who are all in love with their new little sister. As parents, we couldn’t be happier.

He also thanked "the doctors, midwives and staff at Musgrove Park Hospital Taunton" following the birth.

"You were incredible. And Emily’s parents, whom I adore. You have both been incredible.

"I’m so happy. Just off to hold her. Thanks everyone for reading," he concluded.

Andre also has a daughter Princess, 16, and a son Junior, 18, with his ex-wife Katie Price.

Fans, well-wishers, and the couple's famous friends rushed to congratulate the pair on their news, and even suggest some names.

Amanda Holden wrote: "I’m so happy for you - Dylan… Robyn… Boys names are great for girls."
