This Morning's beloved expert and psychologist, Emma Kenny, has given birth to her fourth child at the age of 52. Alongside her husband Pete, 34, they've welcomed a little girl into their growing family.
Emma excitedly broke the news on Instagram, introducing her baby girl Ella-Grey to the world with a series of adorable snaps.
Her heartwarming post read: "Say hi Ella-Grey And then we were six! Say hello Ella-Grey! This morning she entered the world with a very loud cry. The Royal Bolton hospital have been fantastic and ensured that we have both been looked after brilliantly."
Already blessed with three children Tyde (22), Evan (20), and Etta-Blue, brought into the world in 2023, Emma's joy was sombrely mixed with grief, as she recently lost her mother, reports the Mirror.

Speaking of her family's loss, Emma shared: "I lost my mum suddenly a couple of weeks back, and it's really strange knowing that neither of my babies will get to know their grandparents.....they would have loved them as older my boys did before them."

She further expressed: "Ella-Grey has been lying on me all day, she latched on immediately and is as wonderful as I imagined she would be…..but like her sister…..I am blindsided that she is a girl. So, now I have two very big boys of 20 and 22, and two tiny girls aged 1 day and 23 months."
She revealed that she had struggled to come to terms with her father's tragic passing, and at the time, she thought she would never find happiness again.
However, she has since learned that people are capable of more than just withstanding suffering; they can also learn, grow, and develop courage through it.

She reflected: "When my dad took his life in 2019, I never thought I would be happy again, but in truth I couldn't have been more wrong, I've learnt we are more than simply built to withstand suffering, we are programmed to learn, and grow, and develop courage through it. I cannot change what happened but I can embrace the gifts that grief brought me."
She concluded her post by expressing gratitude to those who had supported her during difficult times. She wrote: "Thank you to all of you who have spent years supporting me.
"You stood beside me in the dark times and you gave me so many new career directions that these days I don't need invites off the MSM! Thank you, all of you, for so much more than you could possibly know xxx."
The announcement was met with an outpouring of congratulations from fans and friends. One well-wisher commented: "Massive congrats! You are such a massive inspiration."
Meanwhile another added: "Awww congratulations to you both, your girls will be besties! It is hard when the younger ones don't get to know your parents the same way as older siblings, I feel my youngest missed out on so much too, best wishes to your lovely family."

Ronaldo's sister explains Jota funeral no-show in staunch defence of brother
Cristiano Ronaldo did not to attend Diogo Jota's funeral on Saturday and his sister, Katia Aveiro, has hit back at criticism of her brother's decision on social media Cristiano Ronaldo's sister, Katia Aveiro, has responded to criticism of her brother's decision not to attend Diogo Jota's funeral. Jota and his brother Andre tragically died in a car crash on Thursday and their funerals were held on Saturday. A number of Jota's teammates attended the service in Gondomar, near Porto, but Portugal captain Ronaldo decided not to make the journey as he was wary that his presence could overshadow the funeral. Ronaldo did receive some criticism over his decision and his sister has hit back in a series of posts on Instagram. On her story, Katia wrote: "When my father died. In addition to the pain of loss we had to deal with a flood of cameras and curious onlookers at the cemetery and everywhere we went. "And attention was not what it is today in terms of access... At no time were we (the children) able to leave the chapel; it was only possible at the time of the burial, such was the commotion. "At the funeral, there were presidents, coaches of the national team at the time, such as Luís Filipe Scolari, etc. I don't remember seeing any of them. And they certainly greeted me. The pain blinded me. "About pain/family and real support... You will never know what it means until you go through it. If someone sends me a message criticising anything my brother does, I will block it (completely ignore it), that is, they will only do it once. "It's getting tiring. The fanaticism. The criticism for nothing, I repeat nothing... Sick society... We all have families. "It is absurdly shameful to watch TV channels/commentators/social networks emphasising an absence (wise) rather than respectfully honouring the pain of a mutilated family destroyed by the loss of two brothers. I am even ashamed to watch. Regrettable. "And so the world goes... Society and opinion. Today they are worthless. They themselves have become bottomless pits. I feel sorry... And war is also like that. Believe me. Human evil is also a war. And every day we have to fight against it. And so it goes." Ronaldo did share an emotional tribute to Jota on social media, writing: "It doesn't make sense. We were just together in the national team, and you had just gotten married. To your family, your wife and your children, I send my condolences and wish them all the strength in the world. "I know you will always be with them. Rest in peace, Diogo and Andre. We will all miss you."

Emmerdale star ENGAGED to convicted drug lord she secretly visits in prison after he helped start giant meth factory
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) EMMERDALE star Lucy Pargeter is engaged to a big-time drugs gang member who she has visited in prison. Lucy, 48, has been to see Elliott Walker, 54, who helped start one of the largest amphetamine factories ever busted in Britain. 5 Emmerdale star Lucy Pargeter is engaged to a big-time convicted drugs gang member Credit: Getty 5 Lucy visiting the criminal in prison Credit: Jason Bye 5 Elliott Walker is serving six years behind bars She drove four hours from her Yorkshire home to HMP Hollesley Bay, Suffolk, and back — 500 miles in all — where Walker is doing six years. Our picture shows her last weekend parking in the visitors' car park of the 460-capacity Category D nick. Lucy, who split from her former partner in 2019, had stated in a podcast that she was in an 'exclusive new relationship'. Last year, the mum of three, who has played Chas Dingle on ITV's Emmerdale for 23 years, revealed in a personal Instagram video post that she was wearing a diamond engagement ring. A source said: 'Her relationship has been the talk of the prison because some other visitors obviously recognised Lucy the other day as she's been on Emmerdale for ages. 'And Elliott has made no secret of telling other inmates she's his fiancee.' It is not known how and where Lucy met Walker, who is thought to be close to a release date. Walker, from Kidbrooke, South East London, was locked up in 2021 after admitting conspiracy to supply amphetamine. He bought equipment for the drugs lab in Henley-in-Arden, Warks, which was smashed by the National Crime Agency. It was said to be capable of producing 400kg of amphetamine — with an estimated street value of £10millon — every month. Emmerdale's Lucy Pargeter splits from long-term boyfriend Rudi Coleano Gang members had chemistry training in order to run the operation and the drugs were distributed in London, Kent and the West Midlands. Another gang member got 18 years after admitting drug and money laundering offences. Others were found guilty at trial. Lucy, who came third on I'm A Celebrity in 2013, has told previously that she had breast implants removed as they hampered her breathing. The Sun on Sunday has approached her for comment. 5 Last year, the actress let slip in a personal Instagram video post she was wearing a diamond engagement ring

Noel Gallagher's girlfriend supporting Oasis at gig as ex-wife Meg returns home
Oasis singer Noel Gallagher's ex-wife, Meg Mathews, was in attendance at the reunion gig in Cardiff on Friday evening Oasis took to the stage for their first performance in 16 years on Friday night, with the band's family, friends and army of fans rushing to get the best view of Liam and Noel Gallagher at Cardiff's Principality Stadium. Noel's ex-wife, Meg Mathews, was spotted on Friday cheering for her ex. She was seen arriving yesterday, with a source telling the Mirror: "After posting about her ex-husband for weeks, Meg Mathews had a prime seat for watching the band. She was in great spirits before the set, watching Richard Ashcroft with pals." However, she was seen making a swift exit before the encore and was seen departing the show before the band came back to sing some of their biggest songs including Don't Look Back In Anger, Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova. Meg shared several clips of the concert, writing "What a night" over an official video of the crowd. On Saturday evening, she took to her Instagram Stories to share a video of her and Noel embracing each other. Along with a heart emoji, she wrote: "Love you nai nai." Not long after, Meg returned to post a snap of her posing with her dog as she revealed to fans she returned to her home in Cornwall. Meg might be back home, but Noel still has the support of his girlfriend Sally Mash, who was spotted at the VIP section of the stadium this evening. Noel and Sally have kept their relationship lowkey after they began their relationship almost two year ago following his split from second wife Sara MacDonald back in 2022 after 12 years of marriage. Sally runs a private members' club in Chelsea, west London, and previously sells luxury holidays to a list of rich clients. She once worked for a company that chartered private jets and handled VIPS for the Queens Park Rangers. Noel briefly discussed his relationship with her to The Sun's Bizarre column, saying: "She's a good woman. She doesn't show up often, but it was nice to see her [at the Royal Albert Hall]. "She says she sees a steely look in my eyes. She's looked into my eyes countless times down the years. "I've punched above my weight several times in my life, and I think if you can make a girl laugh the battle is more than won." He added: "I mean, when you drop your trousers, you'd rip them off and show them the little nubbin of fury. If they do laugh, you're halfway there for a peck on the nubbin."
