Brian Dowling and Arthur Gourounlian post new baby's cheeky gesture in response to online hate

Brian Dowling and Arthur Gourounlian have posted a cheeky gesture made by their new baby in response to online hate.

The Big Brother legend and the Dancing With The Stars judge welcomed their first child, Blake Maria Rose Dowling Gourounlian, together on September 1. Brian's sister Aoife carried the baby as their surrogate mother after the couple travelled to Portugal to find a donor egg.

Arthur made a statement last night, a week after Blake was born, confronting negative and homophobic comments their family has received on social media. The video post shows the week-old baby putting her middle finger up in her sleep.
