Sinead Kennedy and her husband Conor Kirwan have welcomed their first child to the world.
The RTE star gave birth to a beautiful little girl and both mum and baby are said to be doing well.
Sharing a snap of her hubby carrying the baby out of the hospital, proud mum Sinead said, “Home a few days now and settling into life with the little one. Indie Kirwan is the most precious thing to have ever happened to us.
“We’re overcome with happiness and and are feeling extremely grateful. We’ll love you forever baby girl.”
Taking a moment to share her appreciation with doctors, midwives and nurses who looked after herself and Indie, she added, “Thank you so much to the incredible staff at CUMH for looking after us both so well.”
Family, friends and colleagues were quick to share their well-wishes with the happy family.
Miriam O’Callaghan said, “That’s such exciting news Sinead – a precious baby girl. Congrats to you both.”
Karen Koster added, “Well done Mama! Gorgeous name! Huge congrats to you & your lil family!”
Sinead announced her pregnancy joy at the end of December, and revealed she was blown away by messages of love and support from family, friends and viewers right across the country.
Taking to social media she beamed, “I have no words for how gorgeous you’ve all been. Thank you so much for all of your kind words, they are very much appreciated and made the last few days of 2020 all the nicer.”
She continued, “Feeling incredibly grateful and very much looking forward to everything that 2021 has in store for us; sleepless nights, nappies… the lot… it’s all part of the gig anyway right?”
Sinead and Conor have been married for six years after tying the knot during a romantic ceremony in Co Kerry, in 2014, surrounded by their nearest and dearest.

For the big day, Sinead stunned in a vintage white gown with gorgeous detailing across the chest and shoulders, while Conor looked handsome as ever in his naval officer uniform.
Sharing a gorgeous throwback picture earlier this year, Sinead said, “Six years since I married this guy. Happily strolling through Sneem after saying ‘I do’. Loved every second of that day.”
She added, “I feel for people trying to plan/reschedule their weddings during all of this, but whenever it happens, and however it happens, trust that it will still be magic.”
We wish them continued happiness.
