Lorraine Kelly, the beloved ITV daytime star, has recently welcomed her first grandchild as her daughter, Rosie Smith, gave birth. It's a momentous occasion for the entire family and congratulations are pouring in for the new parents. Rosie, who is 29 years old, is the only daughter of Lorraine and her husband, Steve Smith. In April, Rosie announced that she and her fiancé, also named Steve, were expecting their first child, much to the excitement of Lorraine who couldn't wait to become a grandmother.
Now, Lorraine has shared her joy after Rosie confirmed the birth of their daughter and even revealed her name - Baby Billie Kelly Smith-White. Rosie shared an adorable photo on Instagram of the newborn's tiny hand wrapped around a finger, and Lorraine couldn't be happier. She said, "It feels like she's been here the whole time and we're not quite sure what the point of anything was before. I'd heard how amazing midwives are but they are genuinely walking angels - she's been welcomed into the world with so much love already."
Lorraine couldn't help but share the happy news on her own Instagram page, writing, "I have been BURSTING to share this wonderful news with you! Baby Billie is an angel and I'm so proud of Rosie and Steve who will be the best parents." She also expressed her excitement for future family adventures, saying, "I'm delighted to be Granny Smith and can't wait to go on adventures. #love#joy#happiness#family."
Friends and fans were quick to send their well wishes, with Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid among those congratulating the new grandparents. Lorraine had previously described Rosie's pregnancy announcement as "the most exciting thing to have ever happened in our family!" She also shared, "Cannot wait to be a granny and so proud of Rosie and her Steve. It's the best news EVER!"
Rosie and her partner Steve announced their engagement in June, and it's clear that the mother-daughter duo share a close relationship. Lorraine has always been there for her daughter, and even though Rosie has moved out of the family home, they still talk about everything under the sun. In an interview, Lorraine shared, "I'm her mum, though, I'd never say I was her best friend because she's got her friends already...I'd love to think she tells me everything but she doesn't." It's heartwarming to see the bond between Lorraine and her daughter, and now, as they welcome a new addition to the family, their love and support for each other will only grow stronger.
