Gemma Atkinson gave birth to her first child on 4th July 2019 with her Strictly Come Dancing boyfriend Gorka Márquez. The pair announced that they'd welcomed a baby girl on Instagram, but have decided against sharing photos or her name just yet.
However, Gemma has been updating fans on how life has been going as a new mum, and it's safe to say that her recent post has left fans with watery eyes.
Sharing a selfie in her house, Gemma gave a thumbs-up to the camera - and fans couldn't help but note how incredible she looked less than two weeks after giving birth! But it was the caption in which Gemma said that she 'genuinely never dreamed I’d love someone as much as I do her' that had fans going all gooey.
