This Morning star leaves fans in tears after welcoming baby girl in secret
The ITV star is a resident psychologist on This Morning
Congratulations are in order for This Morning star Emma Kenny, who has welcomed a baby girl after hiding her pregnancy for nine months.
Emma, 50, who struggled to conceive and suffered several miscarriages, announced her happy news on Instagram with a carousel of heartwarming baby photos.
To mark the special occasion, the ITV show's agony aunt and therapist posted a slew of intimate snapshots including a precious image of herself breastfeeding her newborn, in addition to a sweet picture of her husband Pete Skywalker doing skin-to-skin contact with their tiny tot.
"I've waited ten years to finally hold you in my arms. With every miscarriage, I tried to learn to be grateful and accepting of what I had," Emma noted in her caption.
"I tried to dampen my desire to be a mother to another child, to find peace in my natural infertility and yet it felt so unnatural all in the same moment. I have spent the last 9 months hiding my pregnancy, travelling the country with my theatre show, filming my YouTube crime content, and working on as many projects as possible in a bid to distract myself from the growing hope and possibility that this time you may just become a reality, and that this time things will end in in the sweetness of joy, instead of the agony of loss."

She went on to say: "Your beauty is breathtaking, your company perfect, your presence utterly profound, and whilst I grieve the years I wish we could have had together, I know that you are meant to be mine right now, and not a minute sooner."
Revealing her baby daughter's name, Emma finished by writing: "Etta-Blue, you have healed more than you’ll ever know, and reminded me of the wonder of being, even in the face of loss and suffering. I cannot wait to share your adventures."
Emma's fans and friends were quick to send congratulatory messages, with one writing: "I am beyond thrilled for you, Pete and the boys! This is such wonderful, magical news! Congratulations to you all, she's beautiful," while a second chimed in: "Such a gorgeous picture thanks for normalising breastfeeding."
A third remarked: "Awwwww she's just perfect… you deserve nothing but love, joy and happiness Emma," and a fourth sweetly added: "This was so beautiful to read it made me cry. What beautiful news."
Aside from Etta-Blue, Emma is also a doting mother to sons Tyde, 16, and Evan, 14, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Andy.
