Seann Walsh shares adorable first photos of new baby daughter after fainting during labour

Seann Walsh has introduced his newborn baby daughter to his fans online.

The comedian became a dad for the first time over the weekend - admitting to fainting while his girlfriend Grace Adderley was in labour - and has now shared the first snaps of his bundle of joy.

Taking to his Instagram page on Wednesday, the former I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! star posted an adorable shot of new mum Grace cradling their daughter at home.

"Grace has been through so much this week but she’s finally okay. We’re home. Girl power," Seann began when captioning the sweet snap to his Instagram followers.

He added: "Her bravery has made my fainting all the more pathetic."

Seann admitted to 'passing out' when his partner gave birth on Saturday, revealing the incident as he announced her had become a dad on his Instagram Stories.

He joked: "Oh btw. I passed out during the birth. Of course I did. The nurse's response... 'Men.' Fair."

Commenting on Seann's latest Instagram update on Wednesday, Strictly Come Dancing star AJ Odudu quipped: "Aww congratulations. I swear every guy faints."

TV presenter Stephen Mullan added: "Massive congratulations all."

Speaking from hospital over the weekend, Seann told his viewers in a sweet video: "So Grace has just had our baby and I'm sat here in the very relaxing postnatal department and the staff have been great.

"The nurses have been coming up to me all morning and congratulating me which - it's just been lovely. I didn't realise how many people knew what the Chortle Comedy Award for Best Show was but you know, at least these nurses have their finger on the pulse, they really do. Just shows you how well the NHS is doing, really.

"I should have brought the award with me but I wasn't thinking."

Jokingly rolling his eyes, he couldn't keep a straight face as he said: "The baby. But yeah, no, great week actually. Really great week, actually."

Grace was pregnant during Seann's stint in the jungle last year, with the couple discussing their family plans after the comedian was booted out of camp.

Looking ahead to becoming a dad in December, Seann, who shares Cockapoo Mildred-Barrett with Grace, told HELLO! magazine: "My favourite thing in the world is coming home to Grace and Mildred-Barrett, so to have that extra member of our little family to come home to as well, that’s going to be very special."

Dance teacher and choreographer Grace went on to add how Seann's famous campmate Mike Tindall and his wife Zara had given her loads of advice about sleep training a young baby.
