Ferne McCann Shares First Picture Of Baby Girl After Giving Birth A Week Early

Which name will the TOWIE star choose?

Former The Only Way Is Essex star Ferne McCann gave birth to a baby girl on Thursday night, announcing the news with an adorable picture of the newborn on Instagram.

The Essex baba wasn't expected to make her grand entrance to the worlduntil next week, but it seems Ferne couldn't be happier with the early arrival.

Check out the latest updates from MTV News...

"Wellcome to the world my darling. Didn't expect to see you a week early. I'm so in love & bursting with pride. It's a girl (sic)," wrote the new mum on Instagram, alongside the picture of her teeny hands.

While the snap of the newborn doesn't give much away other than the fact she is owning that crisp white baby grow, she is no doubt a total stunner just like her mum.

Unsurprisingly, celebs have flocked to social media to congratulate the reality star, including her former TOWIE co-star Gemma Collins, who wrote: "So emotional right now congratulations @fernemccan on your beautiful little girl."

Meanwhile, Vicky Pattison shared the image of the newborn to her own Instagram, writing: "This is the best news I've had in AGES!! My beautiful friend @fernemccan has had her baby girl!! My darlin, I am beyond happy for you! So much love gorgeous! Can't wait to meet the princess."

We are still waiting to find out hername, but Ferne previously told OK! that she was stuck between two options: "I had a girl's name but I've just thought of another one I like so, if it's a girl, I'm going to see what the baby looks like and then decide between the two," she said.

We can't wait to find out which one she decides. Congratulations Ferne, and welcome to the world little one!
