Pixie Lott announces name of her first child with new christening snap

Pixie Lott has shared the name of her newborn son with husband Oliver Cheshire, alongside the first snap of the newborn. 

The 32-year-old singer took to Instagram on Friday to share a picture of herself cradling the baby, who was covered in a blue blanket and knitted hat, alongside Cheshire, 35, at the child's christening.

Cheshire looked smart in a pinstripe suit as he kissed his wife on the cheek as the pair stood outside the church.

Lott captioned the image: “Albert Charles Cheshire. It has already been the most amazing time of our lives with you little Bertie and we feel so incredibly lucky you chose us to be your [mum] and [dad].”

The star, who welcomed her and Cheshire’s first child last month, wore a pink collared mini dress, a faux-fur lined blue jacket and silver heels. 

Fans and famous pals took to the comments section to congratulate the new parents.

Britain’s Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon wrote: “Congrats to you both! Beautiful.”

Tom Parker’s widow Kelsey added: “Congratulations,” while former Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt commented: “Aawww!!! Congrats!!!”

In June, Lott announced that she was pregnant when she was already 31 weeks.

She shared images of her growing bump in a black sports bra and leggings, while Chesire kissed her stomach and wrote: “We are beyond excited to announce we are expecting our first child together and cannot wait to start a family of our own.”

She also told Vogue that she and Cheshire already knew they were having a boy.

The couple, who got engaged in 2016, married in June 2022 at Ely Cathedral after their wedding was cancelled several times due to Covid.
