“Last year I made a wish… and this year I got to blow out my candles holding him.
“The most special birthday, with my little family. Everything I could ever have wished for. Feeling very lucky.”
The touching update comes just four weeks after Dominique and her husband, Paddy, welcomed their son, Wylder, following an emotional and challenging journey to parenthood.
Recently, the new mum shared a glimpse into their first week together as a family, writing: “One week with Wylder, and it’s just been the happiest time of our lives. Feeling so grateful.”
The couple also opened up about the difficult road to bringing their baby boy home, with Dominique revealing she spent nine days in hospital before giving birth after a lengthy induction, with labour ultimately ending in a C-section.
Wylder’s arrival also carried a deeply emotional significance, as he was born on the day his late sister Wynter was due two years earlier.
Dominique previously shared the heartbreaking news that she had experienced a stillbirth in 2024, making her son’s birth an especially poignant milestone for the family.
Since welcoming Wylder, Dominique has continued to share sweet updates from life as a new mum, with fans and friends flooding her comments with messages of love as the family celebrates this joyful new chapter together.
