Gorka Marquez shares sweet photo with Gemma Atkinson after she gave birth

They welcomed a little girl earlier this month

Gorka Marquez has shared a sweet photo with girlfriend Gemma Atkinson hours after she gave birth to their daughter.

The couple welcomed a little girl into the world on July 4 2019 and it’s fair to say the couple are besotted.

Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Strictly Come Dancing star Gorka gushed over his family.

Gorka wrote: “I took this photo few hours after Gem gave birth to our gorgeous baby girl.

“I’ve been only 5 days away from both of them and It already feels like 5 months.

“Counting down the hours (48h) to be back with both of them and melt my eyes looking at those two beautiful faces.”

It comes after Gemma gushed about motherhood, describing it as a “dream”.

Thumbs up to the new mums club what a whirlwind 9 days it’s been having little princess (my new bff) at home with me 24/7. Being only maternal towards dogs for the first 30 years of my life (which btw Norman & Ollie are still my everything ) I genuinely never dreamed I’d love someone as much as I do her. I’m not sure how but we’ve been blessed with the most chilled out, calm, zen like baby who so far eats and sleeps every 4hrs like a topper and in between is happy amusing herself having a good old kick and wriggle in her pram. My sister has 3 kids so I’m well aware this good behaviour probably won’t last ‍♀️ so I’m making the most of it now before she turns on me and has me clawing my own eyes out! You were all right though, motherhood is a dream and I’m loving it ps. How lucky too that my mat leave from the Radio has been over Wimbledon! C’mon Serena!

Gemma rounded off her post by sharing her delight that her maternity leave has coincided with this year’s Wimbledon Championships!

Meanwhile, earlier in the week 28-year-old Gemma shared a candid shot taken by Gorka after her waters had broken.
