If anything, 2020 is at least shaping up to be an excellent year for celebrity spawn, what with so many exciting pregnancy announcements and babies being born.

The latest stars to welcome a baby are Millie Mackintosh and husband Hugo Taylor, who announced the happy news on Friday afternoon. The former Made In Chelsea star gave birth today at 1.21pm to a "very healthy" baby girl, the new parents said.

"We are delighted to announce the arrival of our darling girl who arrived on Friday 1 May at 1:21pm, weighing a very healthy seven pounds," they told Hello magazine.

"We are eternally grateful to the doctors, nurses and midwives for taking such good care of us. Mum and baby are both doing incredibly well and we are looking forward to bringing our daughter home and spending time together as a family."

A day earlier, Millie ~ who announced her pregnancy in November ~ said she was planning on taking a break from social media.

"When I return I shall continue to be open and honest sharing my experiences and early days of motherhood," she wrote on Instagram. "Until then, it’s with a huge, heartfelt thank you from me for all the support. Now onto the next part of the journey!

Hugo and Millie first dated in 2011 after meeting on the E4 reality TV show, but things took a sour turn when Millie discovered Hugo had cheated on her with her then best friend, Rosie Fortescue.

In November 2011, Millie then starting dating Professor Green - real name Stephen Manderson - whom she married in September 2013. But it didn't work out, and Millie and Pro Green announced their split in February 2016 after four years together.

It was then in May 2016 that Millie and Hugo went public with their rekindled romance, announcing their engagement 14 months later in July 2017. A year later in July 2018, they got married in a romantic ceremony at Whithurst Park in West Sussex. And almost two years later, they welcomed their first child together.

Congratulations, Millie and Hugo!
