Congrats to Ola and James Jordan!

Former Strictly Come Dancing stars Ola and James Jordan have become parents for the first time after welcoming a bouncing baby girl into the world.

The new mum confirmed the little one's arrival on Instagram, sharing the first photo of their baby girl.

Alongside a photo of the newborn’s hand, she simply wrote: "She’s here and she is perfect. #mummy."

Husband James, 41, showed off the newborn's feet and wrote: "I'm the happiest man in the world #daddy."

Ola became pregnant with her first child after undergoing a "tough process" of IVF,  for nearly three years.

She previously told Hello! magazine: "When we had the scan it was funny because the baby was dancing. I'm not sure if it was a cha-cha or a jive, but it was definitely dancing."

Former Strictly pro and Dancing On Ice winner James had said: "I'm so glad I get to see her become a mum because it's all she's ever really wanted."
