I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! star Seann Walsh has shared an adorable first photo of his newborn baby. The comedian and his partner Grace Adderley have welcomed their first child together, a girl, whose arrival was announced on Sunday (Feb 12).
Seann had admitted he fainted while dance teacher and choreographer Grace was in labour as he shared the news on social media. Now, the first-time dad has posted a photo taken from over Grace's shoulder of the baby sleeping on her chest.
In the post, which can be viewed below, the 37-year-old told his 203,000 Instagram followers: "Grace has been through so much this week but she’s finally okay. We’re home. Girl power." He added: "Her bravery has made my fainting all the more pathetic."

It came after a text post on his Instagram Stories yesterday, which read: "Can I just say by the way, I'm a little bit offended that no one is surprised that I fainted during Grace's labour! I thought I was a strong independent man."
Seann, whose "double act" with Matt Hancock amused ITV's I'm A Celeb viewers back in November, was congratulated by celebrity friends in the comments. TV presenter AJ Odudu wrote: "Aww congratulations. I swear every guy faints" with a crying laughing emoji.
Comedian Jen Brister commented: "Mate, huge CONGRATULATIONS" while Seann's jungle campmate Babatúndé Aléshé simply posted three red heart emojis. Fans also shared their well-wishes, with Alexandra writing: "So sweet! God bless you all"
Francene shared: "Beautiful, get this lovely lady everything and anything she needs". Jo commented: "So happy to see they are both well and home" and Anne added: "Congratulations. She is absolutely beautiful."
Seann - who has been in a relationship with Grace since 2019, the year after he appeared on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing - had announced she had given birth in a sweet video posted from hospital. Taking to his Instagram Stories, he also joked: "Oh btw. I passed out during the birth. Of course I did. The nurse's response... 'Men.' Fair."
In the video, Seann said: "So Grace has had our baby and I'm sat here in the very relaxing postnatal department and the staff have been great. The nurses have been coming up to me all morning and congratulating me, which has just been lovely.
"I didn't realise how many people knew what the Chortle Comedy Award for Best Show was but, you know, these nurses have their finger on the pulse, they really do. Just shows you how well the NHS is doing, really. I should have brought the award with me but I wasn't thinking."
As he jokingly rolled his eyes, he couldn't keep a straight face as he added: "The baby. But yeah, no, great week actually. Really great week, actually."
