New mum Scarlett Moffatt has opened up about the "greatest two weeks" of her life following the arrival of her first child. The TV presenter gave birth to a baby boy on June 29, two weeks before her due date.

Scarlett took to Instagram on Monday (July 10) to update followers on life as a family with newborn Jude and boyfriend Scott Dobinson. She shared a photo showing her looking radiant in a blue maxi dress while cradling her new arrival - and fans were quick to shower her with compliments, calling her "glowing".

Scarlett said: "Baby Jude Xavier is now 2 weeks old today. Sounds silly but me & @scottdobby genuinely can’t remember what life was like before him.
