Jennifer Ellison and her husband Robbie Tickle have welcomed their third baby boy into the family after a tricky conception.
The upcoming presenter of Dance Mums took to Twitter to share the happy news with her fans after she gave birth last Tuesday.
Charlie was born in Liverpool Women’s Hospital weighing a bonny 8lbs 4.
“We’re thrilled with the new addition to our family - he’s absolutely gorgeous and he completes us! A hatrick of boys!!” Jennifer added.
The newest addition to the Ellison-Tickle family is already at home and said to be doing “very well” – but Jennifer is already feeling the toll of three children.
She tweeted last night:
And it sounds like her toddler son Harry came down with something just as his baby brother arrived.
As well as Charlie and Harry, Jennifer and Robbie also have eldest son Bobby, who was born in 2010.
The former Brookside star spoke recently about finding out she was pregnant with Charlie, saying she didn’t think it would happen because of her health problems.
“I have really bad ovarian cysts and the doctors said I wouldn’t be able to conceive again – then this happens!” she said at the time.
But the 31-year-old actress hasn’t ruled out expanding her brood. “I’ll wait four or five years before I have any more – I’ll get back in shape, get my varicose veins done and sort myself out!” she added to one mag.
