Huge congrats!

Lillie Lexie Gregg has welcomed her first child – a “perfect” baby boy – with her footballer boyfriend, Josh McEachran.

The Ex on the Beach contestant, who previously dated Gary Beadle and Stephen Bear, said on Instagram that their “beautiful” boy had arrived after 24 hours in labour.

She also shared two photos of her newborn – although she didn’t reveal her little one’s name.

The pictures show the boy lying down, covered in a white blanket with the words ‘Baby McEachran’ embroidered on it.

He can be seen wearing a white jumper, as well as a white hat with little ears on it.

She captioned the post:

“Welcome to the world Our beautiful Baby Boy!!!! He arrived yesterday at 13.22pm after 24 hours in labour.

“He is so perfect. And there truly isn’t a love like it.

“I couldn’t have done it without you @jmceachran10 you were absolutely incredible with me and I will forever be grateful for how you looked after us both.

“We are so lucky to have you! Overwhelmed with love doesn’t even come close. I love you both so much x”

The designer and model announced that she was expecting her first child in May this year with a sweet photo of herself and Josh on the beach.

Lillie previously appeared on both Geordie Shore and Ex on the Beach.

She dated Gary Beadle for two years before they split up in 2015, saying at the time that she was “heartbroken” as she thought they were going to get married.

In 2016, she started dating Stephen Bear after they met on Ex on the Beach – but was left devastated when he appeared on Celebrity Big Brother and, ultimately, ended up cheating on her with Chloe Khan.

She entered the reality TV show house to confront him, leading to their split.

She ended up meeting Josh in October that year, and admitted just two months in that they knew he could be The One.

She told the Daily Star earlier this year:

“Yeah I’m really happy.

“I’ve been really scared to talk about it in public for obvious reasons. But he is totally different to any other guys I’ve met before.

“It’s actually the first time in two years that I’m really genuinely settled. We have a really lovely normal life.”
