So cute!

Last year actor Emma Roberts announced that she was expecting her first child with boyfriend Garrett Hedlund.

The American Horror Story and Wild Child star confirmed the news by sharing a series of photos of herself, Hedlund and her bump.

Since the birth of her baby two weeks ago Roberts has been very quiet on social media but yesterday she posted a gorgeous photo of herself and her beautiful new baby boy.

In the post Emma also revealed her baby’s name for the first time and we’re loving how unique it is.

Along with the photo of Emma and her baby in matching orange the 29-year-old wrote;

“Thank you 2020 for getting one thing right. Our bright light Rhodes Robert Hedlund.”

Fans and friends were quick to comment on the photo as soon as it was posted including fellow actor and Pretty Little Liars star Ashley Benson;

“I love you em. Sooo happy for you.”

Reese Witherspoon was also in there straight away with the Legally Blonde actor writing within minutes of the photo being posted;

“Oh baby!! Congrats!!”

Roberts former Scream Queens co-star Billie Lorde (who only recently gave birth herself after keeping her pregnancy completely secret) left multiple hearts and exclamation marks.

Before her current relationship to Garrett Hedlund (believed to have started in 2019) Roberts had an on again off again engagement to her American Horror Story co-star Evan Peters.

Due to her relationship with Peters being heavily scrutinised in the media, Roberts has kept her relationship with fellow actor Hedlung quite private and no doubt she will be the same with new baby Rhodes.

Emma is the daughter of actor Eric Roberts and niece to Julia Roberts of Pretty Woman and Erin Brockovich fame and we’re guessing there’s lots of excitement in the family at the moment especially with this being Eric’s first grandchild.
