Irish presenter Laura Whitmore has announced she has given birth to her second baby in a wholesome announcement.
The 41-year-old has been married to her comedian husband, Iain Stirling, since 2020. The following year, the pair started a family, welcoming a daughter called Stevie Ré, four, in March 2021.
In February, Laura and Iain revealed they were expecting their second child. In a carousel post, Laura shared various photos of her growing bump as well as outfits that hid it pretty well.
“Instagram V Reality,” she wrote in her caption.
“Spoiler: It wasn’t just a big meal mama ate. She’s been cooking away! I’d like to thank stretchy pants and travel sick bags.”
However, in exciting news, Laura and Iain have announced they have welcomed their little one…
Laura Whitmore announces birth of second baby
In an Instagram post shared today (June 3), Laura revealed she had given birth to her second baby.
Posting a photo of her little one’s hand resting on her chest, the former Love Island host said: “A new player has entered the game!”
“We welcomed the most precious baby last month, unexpectedly early and with dramatic flair (wouldn’t expect anything else). I had made a 5 hour birthing playlist this time.. only played about 3 songs – ended up using it post birth. It’s a reaaally good playlist, can somebody please use it,” she continued.
“Been enjoying baby smells, lack of sleep and scrumptious hands and wrists.”
As of this writing, Laura has not revealed her baby’s gender or name.

Attaching a photo of a small white knitted hat and socks, a jumper of the same colour had “Littlest living legend” across the front.
