He’s here! Stephanie Davis has given birth to her baby son

It's been a crazy nine months!

| Updated:

Former Hollyoaks star Stephanie Davis has given birth to her first child, a baby boy.

Her manager, Adam Muddle, said: “We are delighted to confirm that our client Stephanie Davis gave birth to a baby boy on Friday.

“Mother and baby are doing fine.”

The news follows reports that the 23-year-old had been in labour for around 48 hours before giving birth naturally in Liverpool.

Meanwhile, her ex-boyfriend, Jeremy McConnell, came under fire for holidaying in Thailand in the lead-up to the birth of his son.

The pair first got together after appearing as fellow contestants on Celebrity Big Brother in 2016, months after Stephanie finished a five-year run playing Sinead O’Connor in Hollyoaks.

She first came into the public eye when she took part in the BBC talent-spotting show Over The Rainbow in 2010.

Steph Davis’ pregnancy timeline…

This is the pic that Steph posted to drop the major hint that she was expecting. Shortly after she deleted it but it did leave fans wondering…

Early in her pregnancy, the actress was knocked to the ground in an assault – her attacker took pictures and shared them on Twitter. He wrote: “Just rock bottomed that big brother s**g, pass it on.”

After ex boyfriend Jeremy McConnell denied knowing that Steph was pregnant, her followers bombarded her with messages claiming that she wasn’t really pregnant.

Because at this point, Steph hadn’t revealed her bump, followers claimed she was having a ‘fake’ pregnancy for attention.

How wrong they were!

These pictures of Steph drinking what appeared to be pints of lager only added fuel to the fire of the speculation that she was pretending to be pregnant. She hit back, claiming she was only drinking orange juice.

Having kept her body under wraps, she finally revealed her bump on the front of OK! magazine.

Steph then treated fans to the first ever shot of her bare bump; forming a heart around her belly button, this shot was super duper cute.

Steph continued to receive abuse from internet bullies, with one particularly disgusting tweet being: “I hope you lose your baby.”

Steph was strong, and hit back at the trolls by writing: “Yano, lately I’ve had to accept that some people online & in general are down right evil and heartless…I don’t let it get to me anymore.”

Although Steph didn’t have the best luck with Jez, she revealed during her pregnancy that she still wanted to find her soulmate.

Steph shared her haul of baby supplies – he is definitely not going to be short of clothes!

Steph appeared on Loose Women to speak about being pregnant and also showing everyone her first baby scan. She also revealed that ex Jeremy kept pushing her to try and have a child, but now wanted nothing to do with their baby.

Steph revealed that she’s having an adorable baby boy in, of course, OK! magazine. She tweeted at the time that she already had a feeling she was having a little lad!

The CBB star posted a video to Instagram, hearing the baby’s heartbeat for the first time and explained it really was incredible!

Steph and Bump jetted off to Tenerife for a babymoon!

Steph revealed some major news that will affect her future big time – she bought a house!

The question we all wanted to know, is what name will Steph choose for her baby boy? After a trip to Jersey, she decided to name her baby after a random lad that chatted her up. Unfortunately she only revealed the middle name, Albi!

Steph became a Loose Women guest panellist and there are even hopes she will become a permanent panellist once she settles in motherhood.

Steph also sparked rumours that a new romance was on the cards, posting a picture with a mystery companion as she got her hair done. However, many believed it was her BFF Jay Roberts.

Steph had a scare when she was told by doctors that her baby was a lot bigger than it should be.

Fans were concerned when Steph was admitted to hospital with a mystery illness.

Steph revealed the pictures from her baby shower in OK! magazine and it looked like the perfect day.

Steph swore by her exercise ball to help with her sore back.

Rumours surfaced that Steph was set to return to Celebrity Big Brother with her newborn baby.

Steph was trolled again after posting this picture as followers claimed her bump had disappeared. She also revealed her phone had been littered with cruel voicemails, many fans believe Jeremy was behind them.

Steph continued to brush off the cruel comments and continued to share her pregnancy with us. Doesn’t she look beautiful?

Who needs men to put furniture together? She’s a strong independent woman.

Steph wished everyone Merry Christmas with this post in a gorgeous glittery dress.

Finally, the final post on Boxing Day before everything went silent on social media.

Congratulations to her and the baby!
