A massive congratulations to them.

Love Island’s Camilla Thurlow and Jamie Jewitt have welcomed their first child together.

The couple, who met on the ITV reality TV dating show back in 2017, announced that they were expecting their first child earlier this year.

Camilla announced the birth of her daughter, Nell Sophia, today on Instagram. Sharing a series of family photos, she wrote:

“Nell Sophia Jewitt, 4:32am, 27th October, 6lb 5oz. There may be a thousand new photos on my camera roll, but none of them could ever do justice to the way you have lit up our lives.”

Camilla and Jamie have been together since 2017, after meeting towards the end of the third season of Love Island.

Jamie entered the villa late after Camilla had failed to make a connection with anybody else. They quickly formed a bond, fell in love, and finished second in the series behind Kem and Amber.

Camilla told Digital Spy previously that she and Jamie didn’t have any immediate plans for marriage just yet, namely due to the fact that it’s never been “a priority” for them.

“We’ve always just tried to do things how they suit us, and neither of us are particularly big on marriage. I think it’s so wonderful for other people, and so brilliant,” she said.

“I’ve travelled to enough places where marriage doesn’t have the same thing, and people who love each other, can’t get married; and people who don’t love each other, have to get married.”
