Jools Oliver has shared an incredible untouched photo of the moment she gave birth to Jamie Oliver’s son, River.
The candid shot captures the very moment that the mum-of-five met River, straight after giving birth to him two years ago.
Jools looks super emotional in the photo, as she holds her hands out to hold her newborn son for the first time.

Jools, also mum to Poppy, Daisy, Petal and Buddy, delivered River two years ago.
In May she told how she had suffered two miscarriages.
Sharing a picture of herself with River on social media, she wrote: ‘In celebration of International day of the midwife. Highlighting the magnificent and vital role that midwives play in bringing our babies into the world.
‘We have been so lucky to have been blessed with the most wonderful midwives for each of our 5 children and the 2 little angels we lost.’
