Former TOWIE star Sam Faiers has given birth to her second child with boyfriend Paul Knightley.
A representative for the 26-year-old exclusively told MailOnline on Sunday: ‘Samantha and Paul are delighted to welcome a baby girl into the world, both mother and baby are doing well.’
The pair are already doting parents to son Paul Tony, who they welcomed in 2015, and had expressed their desires for a daughter during their second pregnancy.
Baby number two! Former TOWIE star Sam Faiers has given birth to her second child
The couple announced they were going to become parents for the second time earlier this year, and she admitted she thought she was having a baby girl during an installment of This Morning.
Comparing her experiences of pregnancy, she coyly said: ‘I’m carrying a lot different to Paul. We’re keeping a surprise – but it could mean it’s a girl.’
Sam insisted the couple want a ‘big family’ – and that she was feeling ‘broody’ since becoming an aunt to her sister’s second son.
‘We do want a big family, and when Billie had her second baby, Arthur, it made me broody,’ she told MailOnline.
‘It made me all, “Ohhh I want a newborn!” But I think there should be a three or four year age gap between my children. Plus we are really just enjoying baby Paul right now!’
The family are preparing to air the third series of their reality show The Mummy Diaries, which will document every detail of Sam’s second pregnancy.
