Joss Stone wows at Macy's Parade just months after 'scary birth' of second child

Joss Stone was all-smiles at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade as she prepared for the festive season following the 'scary' birth of her second child.

The singer-songwriter, 35, stunned as she rode on one of the parade's floats during the annual Thanksgiving celebrations in New York City.

Wearing a long beige trench coat over a glitzy Christmas get-up, complete with fur on the neckline, she blew a kiss to snappers after being spotted enjoying the festivities.

Joss appeared to be engaged on a FaceTime call as she joined in during the 96th annual Macy's parade in the city earlier this afternoon.

The Right to Be Wrong hitmaker sported bright red lips as she smiled for photographs, completing her colour-coordinated ensemble with a pair of classy gloves.

Her outing comes after giving birth to her second child in October, recently revealing the 'scary' pregnancy with her son Shackleton.

Joss and boyfriend Cody DaLuz were thrilled to welcome baby Shackleton last month a year after suffering a miscarriage. The pair also share 19-month-old daughter Violet.

However, Joss has revealed her labour was far from smooth sailing, explaining she was already in "massive amounts of pain" before she was told she'd have to have a c-section.

She was surprised by the news after saying she had prepared her whole life for a natural birth. However, in order to safely deliver their child, doctors made the decision to rush her to theatre.

Joss told People: "[Shackleton's] heartbeat was at normal rate. And then all of a sudden, it just slowed down, massively slowed down. I thought, 'Oh, that's my baby. That's not good'."

Speaking about the nurse's actions in that moment, she continued: "She comes up to me and she goes, 'The room is going to fill up with a lot of people - Don't worry about it, just stay calm,' then Cody looks at me and he said the same thing.'

And in a scary turn of events, Joss revealed how the child's heart rate dropped again. "He was coming down the birth canal, and when my uterus split," she said. "His head went into my abdomen and he went back up... They had to bring him back to breathing again."

Doctors decided the best course of action was to put the singer to sleep and thankfully once she woke up, her baby son had been successfully brought into the world.
