The Valley's Nia Sanchez and Danny Booko welcome fourth child as they reveal sex and old-fashioned name
Nia Sanchez and husband Danny Booko have proudly welcomed baby number four to their growing family - and revealed that newborn's name and gender on Thursday.
Sanchez, 35, and Booko, 41 - who both star on the Bravo series The Valley - are also parents to son Asher, three, and twins Isabelle and Zariah, almost two.
The mom-of-four jumped to her Instagram page to give adorable first glimpses of the little one - who is a girl named Adelaide Nicole.
The name Adelaide, in English, is derived from the German name 'Adelheid,' meaning 'noble kind' or 'nobility.'
Nia opened up about the special meaning of their daughter's moniker during an interview with Us Weekly, while also getting candid about how the birth of their fourth child was a 'full circle moment.'
In the joint post that was also shared to Danny's account, the couple posed for a sweet snap while inside a hospital.
Sanchez could be seen cradling the newborn in her arms while sitting in a chair as her husband stood closely next to them.
Nia and Danny held big smiles on their faces and in another image, Booko laid a gentle kiss on his wife's head.
She additionally included a short reel while holding Adelaide and gave her followers a look as the baby's tiny fingers wrapped around one of hers.
The reality stars paused for another moment with their newborn baby girl while standing inside the hospital room.
The pair stood closely together as Sanchez held the little one who was swaddled in a warm blanket with a beanie placed on her head.
Booko also had the chance to bond with their fourth child as he lovingly carried her and gave her a gentle kiss.
In the caption of the latest post, Nia penned: 'Sweet little memories from Adelaide's first moments of life. We are absolutely in love! Birth story coming soon.'
While talking to Us Weekly, the couple confirmed the name of their fourth child and explained the meaning behind the moniker.
Nia's great-grandmother had been named Adelaida and Adelaide - which is German origin - also means both noble and kind.

In regards to the middle name, the reality star told the outlet that Nicole is also her mom's middle name.
'We wanted to honor her because she has been such a pivotal part of helping us raise our children.'
Their son Asher and twins have already embraced the role of being older siblings to the newborn.
'They always want to hold her and sing songs to her. They are already great older siblings!' Sanchez gushed.
Nia also expressed how the 'first moments' of Adelaide's life were 'so sweet and intimate.'
'In our previous birth experiences, we've had a lot more people in the room. And we've always had a doula. This time, it was just us with our doctor and two nurses. This birth was extra special because Danny was able to deliver the baby.'
Late last year in December, the couple - who tied the knot in 2015 - announced that they were expecting baby number four.
Nia and Danny had previously discussed either having two or four children and she later explained, 'We both come from families of four, so having four little ones of our own feels very full circle.'
In December 2024, Sanchez revealed to Us Weekly at the time that becoming pregnant with baby number four had been a 'surprise.'
She said, 'I was shocked but I knew that Daniel would have a full mix of emotions. So I told him on his birthday - exactly a week after I found out.'
Before discovering she was pregnant, both Nia and Booko had already planned on trying to have another child in 2025.
'We had a plan. This was a little bit earlier than our plan,' the Bravo star explained.
'But we figured this baby needed to come at a certain time. Just a little earlier than planned. I think we're just gonna go for a football team.'
Nia has been open about her struggles with infertility - including in an episode of The Valley which aired back in April.
'On our fertility journey, we went to a fertility doctor, [and] that's when I was diagnosed as having unexplained infertility,' Sanchez recalled to her co-star Kristen Doute.
'Unexplained infertility is when they look at your ovaries. They look at your uterus. Everything is fine, so doctors are like, "There's nothing wrong with you. You are infertile. We just don't know why."'
Nia revealed that it had taken nearly two years for her to conceive their first child.
'I can like feel it in my heart, like I remember the disappointment every single month that you're praying for a baby and it's not coming...'
Before her time on The Valley, Sanchez had notably won the Miss USA pageant back in 2014.
Since last year, she has taken on the role of a main cast member on the Bravo series The Valley - alongside other stars such as Brittany Cartwright, Jax Taylor and Luke Broderick.
