This Morning's Sian Welby gushes over 'true love' for newborn daughter Ruby in adorable snap
This Morning star Sian Welby has given fans a peek inside her life as a first time mum, just a day after she revealed that she had welcomed a baby girl into the world.
Sian, 37, shared the happy news that she’d become a mum to baby daughter Ruby on Instagram on Saturday, 29 June after posting an adorable snap of the little one wearing a knitted cardigan that featured her name on the back - and now the Capital Breakfast host has provided another update.
In an Instagram Story posted on Sunday, 30 June, the doting mum uploaded a sweet snap of her fiancé Jake, who popped the question last year while on a romantic holiday, cradling Ruby as England’s match against Slovakia played on a TV in the background.
As Jake gazed at Ruby, all eyes were on his daughter as opposed to the highly-anticipated Euros 2024 match. As a result, Sian gushed over the “true love” that her partner had for their daughter. “True love is watching the baby instead of the game,” Sian wrote.
Since revealing that she was pregnant back in February, the TV and radio personality has kept fans updated as she navigates all things parenthood. Prior to heading on maternity leave, Sian announced her baby’s gender live on air.
“I'm at that point where I'm 38 weeks - I've got 11 days to go,” she explained to Capital Breakfast co-hosts Jordan North and Chris Stark. “Before I go off on baby leave, I do want to share one thing with everyone because I've decided that Capital Breakfast, it doesn't have listeners, we are a family and I have told my nearest and dearest what me and my partner Jake are having.
“And I know you are all invested. So I'm going to tell you what I'm having - it's a girl!”
Meanwhile, after introducing her little daughter Ruby to the world, Sian was met with messages of support and congratulations from familiar faces from the world of TV.
Ruth Langsford wrote: “How wonderful! Congratulations Welcome to the world beautiful Ruby” while Amanda Holden gushed: “Just the best.”
This Morning, where Sian is a regular presenter, said: “A massive congratulations to you both, from the whole team here at TM! We can’t wait to meet little Ruby!”
Her former Capital Breakfast co-host Sonny Jay, who became a first time father earlier this year, added: “Ruby & Mia are already besties and they don’t know it yet”.
