Jessie Ware has given birth to her third child.
The Champagne Kisses singer announced that she and her husband Sam Burrows welcomed a baby boy on Thursday evening, sharing pictures of them cuddling the newborn to Instagram.
Jessie, 36, wrote: ‘Our beautiful baby boy arrived safely at home on Thursday evening! Biggest thanks to the Lewisham Poppie Homebirth team, Sue, Flo & Lynn, lovely Mary from the labour ward at Lewisham Hospital, Aimee, Anna, dear Gowri @gentlebirthmethod and of course my @samburrowspt for the 5am sideways walks up a hill, the slow dances, the hardcore back rubs and the constant encouragement and confidence you had in me.
‘It took a village of mighty women (and Sam) to get this little man here and I’m so so grateful. We are so very lucky to have the NHS and the special people that work there xxx.’
Friends and fans congratulated the singer, with Lily Allen, Vicky McClure, Daisy Lowe, Mel C, Laura Mvula and Stacey Dooley all leaving their best wishes under the post.
Jessie shared four pictures with her announcement, with the first two showing her and Sam cuddling their bundle of joy.
Another saw the star sitting in a hospital bed and throwing up a peace sign, while another saw Jessie in a birthing pool, as a midwife stood close by.
The star joked on her Instagram stories about her post-birth meal, writing: ‘I tell you what, an @HonestBurgers in bed after labour was an absolute touch!’
Jessie and Sam are already parents to a four-year-old daughter and a two-year-old son, and have not revealed the names of any of their children.
She announced her third pregnancy back in February, when she appeared on The Graham Norton Show with a prominent bump.
