Chloe Madeley shares beautiful candid snap from hospital in emotional post about labour 'not going to plan'

Chloe Madeley has shared a beautiful photo taken from before she gave birth as she revealed her labour 'did not go to plan'. Manchester-born Chloe and former England rugby union player James Haskell announced the arrival of their first child over the weekend.

The couple, who wed in 2018, announced that they were expecting a baby in February with James sharing the joyous news on Good Morning Britain alongside his father-in-law, presenter Richard Madeley. Chloe also shared the happy news in an Instagram post by sharing a video montage that featured pictures from ultrasound scans and selfies during her pregnancy up to that point. Chloe simply captioned: "Little one," alongside a heart.

Chloe, who is the daughter of former This Morning hosts Richard and Judy Finnigan, previously told how she feared she would never conceive naturally after two years of trying for a baby. Exclusively sharing the news of their daughter's arrival with OK! magazine Chloe and James, 37, said: "We are delighted to welcome to the world our daughter. We are utterly besotted and beaming with pride". The couple also shared a sweet snap of their baby girl's hand and confirmed she was born last Wednesday morning (August 10) at 8.36am.
