Gogglebox star welcomes baby girl

Gogglebox star Isabelle Silbery has welcomed her first child with husband Alex Richards.

The TV personality, who is already a mum to a nine-year-old son from a previous marriage, took to Instagram to announce the good news over the weekend. 

"RUBY EMILY RICHARDS," the 38-year-old wrote captioned, revealing her newborn's name. 

"The female body is truly incredible. My daughter is here and the experience was grounding and empowering' she continued. 

She then thanked her husband, and said: "so honoured to see you become a besotted father." 

"I'm hormonal and in a love bubble," she concluded. 

Isabelle shared a few photos of her cradling her baby girl in the hospital bed as her husband looked fondly at them. 

Fellow Gogglebox co-stars and fans took to the comments to congratulate the couple on the new addition to their family. 

"Congratulations on the safe arrival of Ruby Emily Richards, hope everything went well Izzy, welcome to the father’s club Alex, cheers 👍🍺" wrote co-stars Lee and Keith. 

"The best!!!! Sending so much love!" commented co-star Adam Densten. 

"Aww Guys Congratulations. Can’t wait to meet you Ruby. God bless you and your family always 💖" added Gogglebox star Anastasia, while co-stars Matty and Sarah shared their congratulations and birthday wishes.

"Love you!!!! Women are incredible and I’m so glad you have made another! 🙌🙌❤️" wrote former Gogglebox star Yvie Jones. 

"Nothing better. Sending so much love to you all from us. 🤍" wrote one fan. 

"Omg she is beautiful! Congratulations Isabelle and welcome Ruby" added another. 

The joyful news comes after the reality TV star candidly opened up about how difficult this pregnancy was and how she struggled with  pre-natal depression in an interview with the Herald Sun. 

"So many women haven't had the rainbows and butterflies pregnancies and it's totally okay to not and to put your hand up when things aren't okay," she told the publication at the time.
