UK TV personality Scarlett Moffatt has given birth to her first child, a boy called Jude Xavier Dobinson.

Posting photos of herself in hospital with her new arrival and boyfriend Scott Dobinson on Instagram, the Gogglebox star told her 2.4 million followers, "My darling boy I can't stop crying looking at you as I can't quite believe you're mine. You wanted to meet us early at just 35 weeks.

"Me & your daddy love you so much that I can’t even put this feeling into words. Our heart and soul feels complete & ready to burst. I will forever and always be grateful to be your mammy."

The 32-year old won the 2016 series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, and was announced as a presenter for the spin-off series Extra Camp in 2017, before quitting in 2019.

She spoke about her journey dealing with sudden onset of tics, inspired by her own childhood struggles with Bell's palsy in a Channel 4 documentary called Britain's Tourette's Mystery: Scarlett Moffatt, in 2022.
