Stacey Solomon has announced the name of her new baby girl.
The Loose Women star, 33, told fans she had given birth to her fifth child, after speculation from fans following an unusual social media silence.
And in an update on Instagram, she revealed her new daughter is called Belle, telling fans: "Belle, our little Belle. Our beautiful, delicate baby girl. Who will forever remind us of the bluebells that are about to bloom as you bring the spring with you into the world…
"And a little special connection to your Rose. To the moon and back Belle. Forever and always."
In January, Stacey revealed that she and husband Joe Swash are expecting another baby girl, having welcomed little Rose in October 2021, and their son Rex, three, a few years before.
Stacey, who also has two older sons from previous relationships, announced the birth of her Instagram stories, sharing a snap of herself taken while pregnant and writing: "To my little family on here...
"I didn't realise I wasn't quite prepared for the crazy quick whirlwind that occurred right after I took this picture.
"I'm so excited to share with you that...."
Stacey also shared a grid post, sharing the first snap of her newborn baby girl as she revealed that she gave birth in Pickle Cottage.
"She’s Here. Our beautiful, daughter born at home with all of your brothers and sister ready to snuggle you forever and ever.
"You literally flew into our world and none of us can quite believe your thick dark head of hair that we just can’t get over.
"We can’t believe your here. Welcome to the world beautiful girl, thank you for the last few months in my tummy, we can’t wait to love you forever and ever we are so grateful we get to be your family."
Stacey's sweet post came after fans wondered if she had already given birth, following a post four days ago when she thanked her bump in an Instagram message.
In the snap, she rocked a pair of grey pyjama shorts and a matching grey top that she rolled off to show off her belly.
She smiled for the camera in the mirror selfie and rocked a middle parting with her straightened long brown locks
"Thank you for everything bump. Woken up with that feeling and so Just in case I don’t get the chance to say it tomorrow…" she said.
"I’m so grateful for them all. For every single time you’ve done this."
As the days went on and Stacey did not share anymore updates on Instagram, fans predicted she and Joe had welcomed their baby.
One fan wrote: “We're getting anxious here. Hope all is well"
Another said: “It's been 3 days since she last posted which is unusual for her so I'd say baby is here”.
A third said: “Hoping all is ok with you? That’s 4 days since you posted. So anxious to know you and baby are well."
A fourth penned: "I definitely think she had baby girl or still ongoing hope everything goes smoothly for her xxx”.
In an adorable reveal video, Stacey filmed the moment Joe discovered he was going to be a dad again as she presented him with her positive pregnancy test.
The actor looked stunned as he gasped 'You're joking!' before sinking to his knees.
