Maya Vander has become a mum again after welcoming her baby daughter to the world.
The Selling Sunset star took to social media to reveal the sweet news to her fans.
"My rainbow baby!" the reality TV star wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of herself holding the tot in hospital.
"This was a long 9 months as I kept my pregnancy as quiet as possible from social media. I gave birth few days ago and words can not express my sense of relief and happiness!"
Maya went on to thank her doctors, adding: "Thank you so much @femcareobgyn and dr Senemar. Thank you to the amazing nurses at Baptist hospital.
"I will forever be grateful and yes I’m wearing a mask because of course I had the worse cold but I made it to push a baby with full stuffy nose," she concluded.
Close friends of the star took the comments to send their congratulations. "So happy for you and Dave. Welcome beautiful Emma Reign. Love you lotssss," one wrote.
A second added: "Beautiful news. Congratulations on her safe arrival. So happy for you!"
A third put: "Congratulations!! The sweetest rainbow after the toughest storm. Crying tears of joy for your family."
"I got induced at 37 weeks," Maya told People about the birth of baby Emma. "Given I had my stillbirth at 38, my doctor didn't want to take any chances, even monitoring me twice a week towards the end."
"I got induced and had a vaginal delivery, like all my children," says Vander, who also has Elle, 3, and son Aiden, 4.
"Her heartbeat dropped as I was pushing," she added. "It turned out that the cord was around the neck," Vander explains. "It was scarier, given my recent loss.
"My husband was extremely worried, and I was focused on getting her out. My gyno, Dr. Senemar was amazing, as well as the nurses."
Maya explained that the couple knew that they would choose the name Emma for the child as the name "sounds good with Aiden and Elle," and they also wanted something "simple and classy."
"As for Reign, she rules like a queen, and I love that it is a strong meaning; we felt that Emma Reign was perfect for her," Maya continued.
The news of Maya's newborn child comes after she devastatingly announced that she had had a stillbirth and experienced a pregnancy loss at 38 weeks in December 2021.
