The former 'Hollyoaks' actress welcomed a son on Friday (13.01.17) at a Liverpool hospital, following a 48-hour labour.

Her representative told OK! magazine: "We can confirm our client Stephanie Davis today gave birth to a baby boy in Liverpool. Mother and baby are doing fine."

No other details have been released.

Stephanie, 23, went into labour on Wednesday (11.01.17) and a friend revealed she was "so excited" about the baby's birth.

The insider told The Sun Online: "Steph is so excited that the day has finally come that she will meet her son. At the moment she is focusing on welcoming her little boy - her priority is his safe delivery and spending some quality time with him. She is grateful for fans' support and well wishes but right now her attention is on getting to grips with being a mum."

Stephanie hasn't had the easiest of pregnancies as she was struck down with acute morning sickness in the first and second trimester and then she experienced some bleeding, which she feared was a sign of her losing her baby, in the third trimester.

However, doctors quickly established that her baby was fine and she had colitis.

Stephanie then started experiencing Braxton Hicks - irregular practice contractions that can be felt around mid-pregnancy and increase in frequency and strength as the pregnancy progresses - and pressure at the bottom of her stomach last month.

While the brunette beauty is celebrating giving birth, her ex-boyfriend Jeremy McConnell - who has denied the baby is his, despite Stephanie insisting he is the father - is on holiday.
