Channel 7 star secretly welcomes "lionhearted" bundle of joy
Amelia Brace is a mum!
The Channel Seven presenter secretly welcomed her first child with husband cameraman Adam Bovino last week, but only just shared the happy news to her followers on Instagram.
“One week with Leonardo Andrea Bovino,” she captioned the series of photos of her son and a few intimate moments from her birth.
“️His name means ‘lionhearted’ in Italian, something our little Leo has certainly proven to be this year," she added.
“He’s a brave boy, just like his Daddy. And looks like him too. Our beautiful reward.”
Brace's colleagues were the first to comment their delight.
“Congratulations beautiful family,” Sunrise host Natalie Barr commented.
“So perfect! Congratulations," added former Sunrise host Melissa Doyle.
“Beautiful, beautiful Leonardo. Can’t wait for cuddles xxx,” wrote Tracy Vo, Nine News' weekend presenter in Perth.
“Congratulations!! You and your beautiful boys,” Weekend Today co-host Belinda Russell also wrote.
A few fans also took to the comments to share their congratulations.
"He is divine! What a beautiful boy. Congratulations," wrote one fan.
"Welcome to the world little Leo ❤️," commented another.
"Leo!!! You are the cutest. You are so loved already little man. Congratulations you three. Sending so much love," wrote a third.
Brace first announced her pregnancy with an ultrasound video in June.
“It’s always darkest before the dawn. A little ray of sunshine, and hope, coming in spring,” she captioned the photo at the time.
Brace and her husband Bovino tied the knot in a beautiful outdoor wedding at Kangaroo Valley, NSW in March 2022 after a three-year engagement.
