Former Love Island sensation Shaughna Phillips has announced the arrival of her second child with boyfriend Billy Webb, marking a new chapter for the couple following Webb's recent release from prison.
The reality TV star, who captured hearts on the 2020 winter series of Love Island, shared the happy news with fans this week, confirming she's given birth to a healthy baby boy. The couple are already parents to their first child, daughter Lucia, who was born in March 2023.
A Joyful New Beginning
This birth comes at a significant time for the couple, as Billy Webb was released from prison earlier this year after serving time for drug-related offences. Phillips has been vocal about supporting her partner through his rehabilitation and their journey as a family.
The 29-year-old Londoner took to social media to share glimpses of her pregnancy journey, though she kept the exact due date private from the public. Followers had noticed her absence from social media in recent weeks, sparking speculation that she might have gone into labour.
Growing Family Bonds
Friends close to the couple say they're "over the moon" with their new addition and big sister Lucia is already embracing her role. "Shaughna has been incredible throughout the pregnancy," a source revealed. "She's managed to stay positive and focused on their family despite the challenges they've faced."
Phillips first found fame on the hit ITV2 dating show, where she became known for her straight-talking personality and memorable catchphrases. Since leaving the villa, she's built a successful career as an influencer and podcast host while navigating motherhood in the public eye.
The couple have yet to reveal their newborn son's name or share photos, but fans are eagerly awaiting the first glimpse of the newest member of their family.
