Doctor Who star Billie Piper has given birth to her first child with her boyfriend Johnny Lloyd, according to a source who told the Daily Mail the lovely news. The source told the newspaper that the former pop star and her rock singer boyfriend Johnny had welcomed a baby girl and, 'Mother and baby are healthy and happy.'
The news comes just a month after Johnny posted a black and white photo of the couple showing off Billie's baby bump as she wore some leopard print flares and a black jacket.
Billie announced her pregnancy last summer and has posted a number of photos over the months showing her growing baby bump.
Now take a look at which celebrities are expecting babies this year:
The new arrival is Billie's third child in total as she already has two sons with her ex-husband, actor Laurence Fox, Winston is now ten-years-old and Eugene is six. According to the Daily Mail, a friend has said, 'Billie will be so pleased she's had a girl. With two sons, a boyfriend and two ex-husbands, she can sometimes feel surrounded by men.'
Billie, who is now 36, became known as a pop star with hits such as 'Because We Want To' and 'Girlfriend' back in 1998, before moving into acting. Billie has had a successful career both on TV and on stage. For many series she played the role of Rose Tyler in Doctor Who, and later Hannah Baxter in Secret Diary of a Call Girl. She has just finished filming her debut feature film Rare Beasts, which she has written, directed and starred in.
In October last year Johnny posted a photo from the set of Rare Beasts captioning it, 'Totally in awe of this woman.. @billiepiper Well done!!! Not only has she just finished shooting her debut feature film ‘Rare Beasts’ which she has written, directed and starred in, she has done it all 6 months pregnant.. she is the most courageous, most determined and kindest person I’ve ever met. She’s an amazing Mum to her two boys and I know she will be the most incredible role model to our little girl when she joins us next year.'
She has been with her current boyfriend Lloyd, who is the former lead singer of the indie rock band Tribes, since 2016.
Congratulations to the couple!
