Reality television stars Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo have shared the wonderful news that they have become parents for the first time. The Made in Chelsea couple announced the birth of their baby boy with a heartwarming Instagram post.
A Joyful Instagram Announcement
Jamie Laing, 36, and Sophie Habboo, 31, revealed their happy news to thousands of followers on the social media platform. They posted a sweet photograph showing the new parents beaming as they cradled their newborn in a hospital room shortly after the delivery.
In the caption, the couple also disclosed the distinctive name they have chosen for their son. They wrote: "Ziggy, you have our whole hearts." The announcement prompted an immediate flood of congratulations from their famous friends and followers.
Celebrity Friends Send Their Love
Well-known faces from the world of television and showbusiness were quick to celebrate the new arrival. Messages of support poured in from stars including Stacey Solomon, Stacey Dooley, Rochelle Humes, and Rylan Clark.
Alex Jones from The One Show also shared her excitement, telling the couple: "Let the adventures begin!" The couple had first revealed they were expecting back in June 2025 with another touching Instagram post.
Wrapping Up Their 'Nearly Parents' Podcast
The birth news comes shortly after Jamie and Sophie recorded the final episode of their parenting podcast, Nearly Parents. During the taping last week, the couple were treated to a surprise farewell celebration before Sophie began her maternity leave, which left her feeling emotional.
Jamie exclaimed to the audience, "Now we get the party started," as everyone applauded. In a light-hearted moment during the concluding podcast, Sophie joked about methods to encourage labour, saying they were at the stage where they "should be nailing the sex."
Jamie responded with mock surprise, leading to a playful exchange where Sophie reiterated, "we need to be having sex, we really need to wrap this up." The couple burst into laughter, with Sophie adding a humorous comment about her pregnancy physique.
The pair got engaged in December 2021 and later tied the knot in a London civil ceremony in April 2023, surrounded by close family and friends.
