Scarlett Moffatt cradles newborn son in hospital room as she shares more pics

Scarlett Moffatt cradled her newborn son in a hospital room filled with blue and silver balloons as she shared more pictures of her adorable new baby.

The former Gogglebox star, 32, welcomed her first child, Jude Xavier, with boyfriend Scott Dobinson, and shared the exciting news of her bundle of joy on social media.

Scarlett went into labour five weeks early, and the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here winner announced his arrival on Instagram.

“My darling boy I can’t stop crying looking at you as I can’t quite believe you’re mine,” Scarlett began.

“You wanted to meet us early at just 35 weeks. Me and your daddy love you so much that I can’t even put this feeling into words.

“Our heart and soul feels complete & ready to burst. I will forever and always be grateful to be your mammy,” she added, as she thanked her partner Scott, and the midwives at Durham Hospital.

“You will all forever hold a special place in my heart for looking after us all with such compassion. Let the baby bubble commence,” she gushed.

In a follow up post on her Instagram Stories, the TV star shared a picture of her holding baby Jude in her hospital room, surrounded by balloons.

“My perfect boy,” she wrote.

Scarlett looked glowing in the snap, wearing grey pyjamas and compression socks - common for new mums after having a c-section - with a huge, besotted grin on her face.

“Congratulations you two unbelievable news,” Vicky Pattinson wrote.

“AHHHHHH CONGRATS MY LOVE,” Michelle Visage added, while Vanessa Feltz wrote: “Wonderful news!! Congratulations.”

“Massive congratulations Mamma Moffat,” Carol Vorderman commented, as Sophie Ellis-Bextor wrote: “Congratulations! Welcome to the world, little man. X.”

Her followers were also quick to send their love to the new mum, with one fan commenting: “Cherish every second because before you know it he will be 16 months old and trashing the house like my little one. Congratulations to you both, having a buba is the best gift life can give.”
