She wrote: “I can’t even find the words other than to say our beautiful girl Siena Grace is here, and we are all bursting with love. 

“It wasn’t an easy ride but every second worth it a thousand times over. I love my babies.”

Olivia , 31, shared a carousel of images with her beautiful family.

Siena could be seen wrapped up in a white babygrow with a full head of dark hair.

She planted a kiss on her son Abel, and they all snuggled up in bed for the photos.

Friends and fans flooded the comments with messages of congratulations.

One person wrote: “She’s perfect. What an amazing addition to a beautiful family. Welcome to the world little Siena Grace. Love you so much already.”

A second added: “Huge congratulations!! What a gorgeous family.”

And a third echoed: “Oh congratulations!!! & what a stunning name.”

Olivia also shared a peek inside baby Siena’s nursery, with a blanket in shot embroidered with her name.

The sweet news comes after the pair revealed that they’ve landed their own ITV reality show , called Olivia and Alex: Parenthood.

The series will offer intimate access to the couple’s real-life journey as they grow their young family from three to four, whilst dealing with the emotional aftermath of losing one of their twins during early pregnancy. 

Just last month Olivia  showed off her blossoming bump  at the Rehab hair event, alongside  Stacey Solomon  and  Sam Thompson .

Olivia exclusively told The Sun about her pregnancy: “It’s different, it’s a lot harder because I had a three-year-old to look after at the same time, before all I had to worry about was myself, so it’s very different.

“It’s really rewarding and so lovely to see how excited Abel is to have a baby sister, he always talks about it.

“Alex is doing good, he’s always wanted a little girl, so he’s really happy about that – we’re just both really but it’s just hard work.

“We already have a name for her. I liked Hattie, but Alex did not. We really liked Darcy. But we have picked one – I got Alex a Father’s Day present with the name and there’s a few reasons why we’ve picked it.”

Olivia continued: “I was really sick at the start, partly that was down to obviously expecting twins at the start and I think my hormone levels were so high, I was really sick for a while, I was really off my food and could only eat carbs and beige foods or nothing.

“Then I had a really nice part, I’ve only got a month to go. It’s just this last bit that’s a bit harder again.”

The media personality also opened up about losing one of her babies at eight weeks.

She said: “It was therapy discussing it, some people might say ‘how did you speak about it?’, but for me I’m a talkative person, I’m an oversharer, it was really like therapy discussing it with people.

“The reaction I had was worth it a million times over.

“So many woman messaged and said ‘I didn’t know what that was but I’ve had it and you make me feel less alone’. Anything that gives you that reaction is so worth it.

“I do feel emotional sometimes thinking about it, I think we’ve compartmentalised it well. We have to because we’ve got a healthy baby that’s nearly here, you try and focus on the positives and not what was going to be or what was.

“It’s still hard and it still comes up in my head and I still think about having to tell her one day. It’s a weird situation but we’re very lucky to have a baby that’s nearly there.”

Olivia announced in February that  she was having another baby , after finding out she was pregnant last  Christmas .

Sharing the news on  Instagram , she said: “A moment, a love – baby no2 – we’re waiting for you.”

OLIVIA’S HEARTBREAK

In March, Olivia opened up to The Sun’s  Fabulous  magazine about  finding out she was expecting twins , but then learning she had sadly lost one of the babies at eight weeks.

She revealed how she had miscarried after suffering from vanishing twin syndrome.

It occurs in the early stages, when one of the babies stops developing and is absorbed by the mother’s body, or the surviving twin.

Speaking on  Loose Women  with husband Alex, the  pregnant star broke down in tears  as the couple discussed the miscarriage with the panel.

She said: “It was such a shock. There were no symptoms to indicate anything was wrong. We went into the scan excited, thinking everything was going perfectly, but it was blindsiding when we learned that one of the babies had gone.”

She reflected on the surprising nature of the loss, especially given the absence of any warning signs, and the emotional toll it had taken on her and Alex.

Olivia added: “I was always so positive, and when you try to be 100% positive all the time, when something bad happens, it hits even harder.”

Despite the pain, Olivia found comfort in knowing that the baby she lost had been reabsorbed into her body by the 14-week mark.
