Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star gives birth to fourth child with husband
On Sunday afternoon, the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star, 25, shared the exciting news on social media and revealed she gave birth to their baby earlier this week.
In her Instagram caption, she told her fans that she gave birth on Thursday, July 17 as she shared a series of photos of their first moments spent with their newborn baby in the hospital.
She shared a carousel of photos of her and her husband admiring their newborn daughter and also included a snapshot of her baby's fingers holding her hand.
Alongside her fourth child's date of birth, the reality TV personality — who first shared her pregnancy news on social media back in February — wrote: 'Our perfect baby girl is here.'
In addition to their newest family member, she and her husband are also parents to to daughters Haven, five, Tommie, three, and son Beckham, seven.
On her Instagram Story, she also shared that she had 'been keeping a secret' as she shared more photos from the first few, quiet days she and her family enjoyed with their new baby.
In another slide, she said that she 'can't wait to share all the details with you guys' before sharing a teaser clip of their youngest daughter's birth story.
'We have just been so in love over here with our baby girl. She's everything we ever wanted and I'm just so happy,' she gushed over a snapshot of her cuddling with her baby.
She also shared a TikTok video, sharing with her fans that she 'posted a little sneak peek of what our life has been like the last 3 days.'
In her posts, her co-star Mayci Neeley also appeared to make an appearance as she is also due to give birth within the next couple of weeks.
Matthews is the second to give birth this month out of the castmates as Jennifer Affleck also revealed earlier this month that she welcomed her third child.
Their happy news comes shortly after it was confirmed that a third season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is in the works.
Back in late February, the mother-of-four shared a video of the moment she discovered her surprise pregnancy.
In her Instagram post, she wrote in her caption: 'Praying this baby heals me. So happy I [can] finally talk about this with all you guys, hahaha!'
Her 'healing' comment was a reference to the chronic illness, which causes severe eczema to flare all over her body, that she's suffered from since childhood and she still hasn't received a diagnosis.
'People tell me, "Maybe this baby's gonna heal you." My fingers are crossed because I get my most anxiety about all my health stuff and giving that to my baby,' Matthews told People on Thursday.
'It's almost motivated me more to take care of my body because I'm like, "I want this baby to be as healthy as possible. I want me to be as healthy as possible."'
The Leighton Meester lookalike tends to 'miss my period a lot with my health issues' and she 'didn't think I could get pregnant right now' so the couple was 'shocked' after taking the test.
The influencer said she and her husband waited until she was 'about eight weeks' along before telling their three kids that they would be welcoming another little one to the family.
'We waited until after my first ultrasound to tell them,' Matthews — who plans on having six total children — recalled.
'We actually told them on the show, and they were so excited. They said Santa brought them a baby for Christmas. It was so sweet.'

Hunter Biden unleashes on George Clooney and all Democrats critical of dad Joe in explosive interview
Hunter Biden is still very angry with actor George Clooney, who wrote a New York Times op-ed last July pushing then President Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 presidential race. The younger Biden sat down for a three hour-long, very foul-mouthed interview with YouTuber Andrew Callaghan, hosting him in Wilmington, Delaware. Biden used four-letter words when discussing Clooney and other Democrats who had been critical of his father or helped orchestrate the president's exit from the 2024 race. The anniversary of the senior Biden bowing out of the race was Monday. 'F*** him, f*** him and everybody around him,' the former first son said of Clooney, as he discussed the actor's decision to pen the op-ed that insinuated that the Democratic president was senile. 'I agree with Quentin Tarantino, F***ing George Clooney is not a f***ing actor. He is a f***ing, like, I don't know what he is. He's a brand,' Biden continued. 'F*** you, what do you have to do with f***ing anything? Why do I have to f***ing listen to you?' Clooney said of the president that 'the one battle he cannot win is the fight against time.' The actor had seen Biden at a June 15 fundraiser in Los Angeles ahead of Biden's disastrous June 27 debate in Atlanta. In the op-ed, Clooney divulged that the Biden he saw at the fundraiser was the same one who appalled Democratic voters on the debate stage. The president's trainwreck debate performance against President Donald Trump heightened calls for the 81-year-old to drop out. 'What right do you have to step on a man who's given 52 years of his f***ing life to the service of this country and decide that you, George Clooney, are gonna take out basically a full-page ad in the f***ing New York Times to undermine the president at a time in which, by the way, what do people care about the most?' he said. 'Why do you think that the Republicans have an advantage over us? Because they're unified.' Representatives for Clooney did not immediately respond to the Daily Mail's request for comment. Throughout the three hour-long sit-down, Biden slammed David Axelrod several times. Axelrod was former President Barack Obama's longtime political adviser who suggested early in the 2024 cycle that Biden should consider dropping out and allowing the Democrats to have a primary instead. 'David Axelrod had one success in his political life and that was Barack Obama and that was because of Barack Obama not because of f***in' David Axelrod.,' Biden said. Obama chose Joe Biden to be his running mate during the 2008 election cycle - but there have long been reports about there being rifts between the Obama and the Biden camps. That was on full display during the interview, when Biden went after the Pod Save America podcasters too. He mocked the group - made up of four former Obama aides - Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, Dan Pfeiffer and Tommy Vietor. Biden called them 'four white millionaires that are dining out on their association with him from 16 years ago, living in Beverly f***ing Hills, telling the rest of the world what black voters in South Carolina really want.' 'The Anita Dunns of the world, who's made 40, 50 million dollars off the Democratic party, they're all gonna insert their judgment over a man who has figured out, unlike anybody else, how to get elected to the United States Senate over seven times,' Biden added. Dunn served in his father's administration but also worked for Obama. Biden also mocked Rahm Emanuel, Obama's former White House chief of staff, for having presidential ambitions. 'What a f***ing ...,' Biden said trailing off. 'David Axelrod's going to run his campaign for him.'
