Former Made in Chelsea star Jessica Woodley has given birth to her first child, a son, at her home in Ireland. The 30-year-old reality TV personality announced the news on Instagram, sharing a photo of her newborn and expressing gratitude for the support she received during the birth.
Woodley, who appeared on the hit E4 series from 2015 to 2017 and previously dated co-star Jamie Laing, revealed her pregnancy in June. She and her filmmaker partner, Mark Logan, are now embracing parenthood. In her announcement, she described the experience as a 'true psychedelic experience' and thanked those around her for their 'unwavering support'.
The couple had announced the pregnancy over the summer with a photo taken in the Wicklow Mountains. Woodley wrote at the time: 'Motherhood, Thankyou for choosing me my sweet child. It is an honour to grow you. You are SO LOVED.'
In a recent interview with OK! Magazine, Woodley opened up about her pregnancy journey, admitting that her first trimester was 'tricky' and that she experienced nausea even at 28 weeks. However, she said the experience taught her resilience and that she felt stronger throughout the pregnancy, crediting her partner Mark for his support.
Woodley, who has previously spoken about the 'trauma' of appearing on reality TV, said she now feels grateful for her time on the show. She explained that the difficult period led to greater self-awareness and a deeper understanding of herself, adding: 'I feel much more in my power as a woman than I did then.'
