Sophie Habboo Gives Birth to First Baby with Jamie Laing

Made in Chelsea's Sophie Habbou has given birth to her first child with Jamie Laing and revealed the boy's name. Alongside a photo of their new baby, Jamie wrote, "Ziggy, you're our whole heart."

Famous friends and fans alike have shared their joy at the news. TV star Emily Blackwell wrote: "Oh my gosh!!! Congratulations guys, I can't wait to meet him." Singer Jessie J wrote: "You did it, mama," along with a hug emoji. Made in Chelsea co-star Sam Prince wrote: "Congratulations!"

As soon as the baby's photo appeared on the screen, Jamie couldn't contain his excitement, exclaiming: "Are you kidding?" Cameras then capture Sophie beaming with joy as they hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time.

From reality TV to radio stardom, Jamie and Sophie's relationship has captivated many. Their love story first aired on Made in Chelsea and has since blossomed into a hit podcast, a BBC Radio 1 hosting role, and a professional partnership with their own production company.

Their romantic story began on Made in Chelsea, giving fans the opportunity to watch their relationship grow. After several years of dating, Jamie proposed in December 2021 at the Rosewood London Hotel – the iconic location where their first date took place.

The proposal was nothing short of magical, with Jamie transforming a luxurious hotel suite with roses and candles. Handwritten notes filled with heartfelt messages were placed on the floor in envelopes.

The two married in a small civil ceremony in London in April 2023. They then celebrated their relationship the following May with a huge party in Marbella, attended by 200 friends and family members.

Recently, Jamie spoke courageously about his battle with bulimia, revealing that Sophie once caught him feeling sick, which was a turning point in his recovery.

Jamie said he was inspired to speak out after watching the groundbreaking Freddie Flintoff documentary, which chronicles the cricket legend's 20-year battle with an eating disorder.

The reality TV star joined Fearne Cotton on her Happy Place podcast and revealed that his body image issues began at age 18, when an injury shattered his dreams of becoming a professional rugby player.

He recalled: "My story is that I played a lot of sports, was very sporty... always quite lean. I used to eat a lot because I was trying to gain weight for rugby. When I injured my knee and lost my sport, I must have had some kind of anxiety without realizing it, and I found comfort in food."

Jamie explained that there was a moment when he saw a photo of himself, which led to years of dangerous eating. Sophie once visited him when he was ill, and her support helped him cope.
