Arabella Chi gives birth to a baby girl! Love Island star welcomes her first child with businessman boyfriend Billy Henty
Arabella Chi has welcomed her first child with businessman boyfriend Billy Henty. The Love Island favourite, 34, announced the exciting news that she had given birth to a baby girl on Instagram on Friday. Sharing an adorable black and white photo of the newborn, she confirmed her name and weight. Arabella captioned the post: 'Our worlds are complete. Gigi Harper Henty. 20/05/2025 6.2 lbs.' For their lavish baby shower, which was held at a Mexican restaurant on Kings Road, guests were served cocktails named Princess Paloma, Miss Margarita and Angel Fresco in honour of her baby girl. A number of Arabella's star-studded pals also came to celebrate including Georgia Harrison, Olivia Hawkins and Dancing On Ice star Ferne McCann. Arabella and entrepreneur Billy found love after starring on the first All Stars series last year, and announced they were expecting their first child together in December. The bombshell and Billy went public with their relationship in October. The model revealed that she has 'always wanted to be a mum' as she discussed finding the one in her boyfriend. Arabella admitted the couple 'moved in together straight away' after meeting through mutual friends. She was previously linked to Premier League footballer Ruben Dias, Leonardo DiCaprio's 'close pal' Richie Akiva and French rugby player Yoann Huget. Although Arabella found herself back in the Love Island Villa in January 2024, she once again was unlucky in love... at least until she met Billy. Speaking in an interview with MailOnline about her pregnancy, she said: 'I'm so happy, and she's such a blessing and I'm so thrilled.' She continued: 'It wasn't a surprise. I've always wanted to be a mum. We've thought of names, so we're very excited.' Adding of her birth plan, Arabella said: 'I don't think it's something any woman is particularly excited about, and from what I hear it's quite painful, but it's part of parcel of being a woman.' 'I think it's an amazing experience what the human body does, so I'm going to take it in my stride, and knowing that I'll have a beautiful daughter at the end of labour will all be worth it.' Elsewhere, Arabella gave an insight into her relationship with Billy and revealed her hopes to get married. 'I met him through mutual friends, so it was a really nice meeting,' she explained. 'We were literally just out for drinks one night, and I met him. At the time I thought, wow – he is an amazing guy, and he turned out to be the one.' She continued: 'It's really nice that's he's not in the showbiz world. My parents have met him, and love him, and he ticks every single box – he's amazing!' 'We moved in together literally straight away, so we're just waiting for the baby now. When you know you know!' Now a proud mum of a baby girl, Arabella previously admitted if she was told she was having a baby a year ago she 'would have laughed in your face'. Speaking to The Mirror during her lavish baby shower in Chelsea this weekend, she said: 'I loved how me and Billy met, it was organic. 'It's hard to do that in this day and age. He's out of this world. And I love that. It's refreshing.' Billy, who tries to keep out of the spotlight, added: 'I can't wait to be a girl dad. It's life changing. It's my own little family. Arabella's amazing. She's got a heart of gold.' Billy explained their little girl is 'extra special' and was 'meant to be' because of Arabella's previous struggles with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). She added: 'When I found out I was pregnant it was magical. With my PCOS I don't know if I'll be able to have more children so she's special.' Arabella added that timing was everything for the couple and she feels so 'lucky' to have found the one. The model said: 'I've learned to trust the timing of your life because life will happen how it's supposed to happen. I can't believe that a year and three months ago I was in the Love Island villa. I feel so lucky to have found my forever partner.'

Former Spandau Ballet singer Tony Hadley took to Instagram to express his immense pride after becoming a grandfather for the first time at the age of 64. The Hadley family welcomed baby Freddie-Floyd Hadley Huntley to the world after Toni, one of the Gold hitmaker's five children, gave birth on May 19. Sharing a black and white photo of the cute new-born on Wednesday, Tony wrote: 'We're so proud and happy to welcome little Freddie to the world! 'He's so gorgeous! Toni and Andy and all the family are over the moon! Love, Papa Tone xx' Tony previously revealed he couldn't wait for the new addition to his family so he could 'continue being childlike'. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'All the family are over the moon,' the 80s star gushed in his caption In a sweet video posted by Toni, the baby's mother, the former Spandau Ballet front man looked elated to at last be able to cradle his grandson. The video detailed the day Freddie was born, from when Toni went into the Labour Ward until she and her partner Andy Huntley brought their son home. It included footage of Tony sharing a sweet embrace with his daughter moments after she gave birth to her first child. Toni gushed in the heart-warming's post's caption: 'SAY HELLO TO OUR BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY - FREDDIE-FLOYD HADLEY HUNTLEY - BORN 19 MAY 2025. 'No words will ever come close to the love we feel for him. He is the most precious gift and already the centre of our world. 'We still find ourselves staring at you every day, in disbelief and pure gratitude that you're ours. Freddie-Floyd, you've made us the happiest we've ever been. 'You are everything. Your first week earthside has already been full of love, you've met your London Grandparents, your Great Nanny, Aunties and Uncle and the world hasn't stopped falling for you since. 'Here's to the life we always dreamed of, finally whole with you in it. We love you, little man. Always.' The birth of his new grandson comes as Tony prepares for a European tour later this year, having left Spand Ballet in 2017. The 80s boyband, which consisted of Tony alongside brothers Martin and Gary Kemp, saxophonist Steve Norman and drummer John Keeble, had eight UK top 10 albums and ten UK top ten hits. Hits such as Gold made Tony and his bandmates household names during that era with their tunes regularly played at nightclubs across the country. But after leaving the group in 2017, Tony revealed his bandmates 'made his life impossible' during the height of their fame. He later told The Mirror in 2023: 'You could offer me all the tea in China and I wouldn't get back with them. There's no way. 'I'm pretty easy-going, it takes a lot to get to that point but once you've pushed me and crossed that line, that's it. I'm done.' Tony continued: 'There's a very specific reason as to why I left and they've never been brave enough to say. 'But it's not my fault. The reason I left was not my fault,' he added. The 64-year-old had hinted that he may open to a farewell tour with his old bandmates - but nothing has materialised yet.

I was the smug school gate mum that everyone hated. To this day, other women cross the street to avoid me. I now fear I'm slipping back into my old ways: RACHEL HALLIWELL
Seeing my eldest daughter with her newborn baby takes me back to the days when she and her two sisters were infants. Of course, I thought each of them was the most beautiful creation on earth. And clearly I'm back to my old ways as I'm already boasting to anyone who'll listen that my granddaughter, aged three weeks, is the world's prettiest, brightest girl.
