It’s official: Perrie Edwards is a mother.

On Saturday (August 21), the Little Mix bandmate, 28, welcomed her first child with longtime beau Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. In an announcement post, which was accompanied by black and white photos of the newborn on a white blanket, Edwards broke the news. "Welcome to the world baby 21/08/21 ♥️," she captioned the shot, to which bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock replied, “I am so proud of you and I love you so much. What an angel." She has yet to unveil the name or sex of the child.

Chamberlain, a Liverpool soccer player, also shared the same photos. "Welcome to the world little one," he wrote. "21/08/21."

Days before the announcement, Edwards shared a number of photos of her posing nude with nothing but gold paint dripping down her body. She initially announced her pregnancy in May, sharing photos of the pair cradling the pop star's baby bump. "So happy to be on this wild journey with my soulmate," she captioned the post. "Me + Him = You. We can't wait to meet you baby Ox!"
