Freddy Brazier and girlfriend Holly Swinburn have welcomed their first child together.
The model and TV personality, 21, discovered that he was set to become a father in August last year.
While Freddy and Holly were thought to have split as of November 2025, they subsequently rekindled their romance in recent months.
In a post to Holly’s Instagram Stories, the pair revealed that they have now welcomed their little one to the world, unveiling a tribute to his late mum, reality TV star Jade Goody.
Sharing a selfie of herself cradling the newborn, with a proud Freddy – whose dad is TV presenter Jeff Brazier – taking the picture.
‘Isla Jade Brazier,’ read the caption, in what seems to be a sweet tribute to his mum.
Jade Goody rose to fame as a contestant on the third series of Big Brother in 2002.
She returned to the Channel 4 franchise in 2007 for its celebrity edition, becoming embroiled in controversy due to her treatment of Indian actress Shilpa Shetty.
It was during her subsequent appearance on the Indian version of the programme that Jade received her cancer diagnosis, forcing her to withdraw from the competition.
Jade died of cervical cancer on March 22, 2009 – Mother’ Day that year – aged 27.
Freddy was just four years old when he lost his mother, while Bobby was a year older, at five.
The Celebrity Race Across the World star recently spoke of this profound loss, telling The Sun that he’d ‘told her what was going on with the baby and how I am feeling, but sometimes I struggle talking to a headstone.
‘I’ve often looked at people out with their mums on Mother’s Day and thought, “You’re so lucky… I wish I could have a special day with my mum.”‘
He added: ‘But now, I’ll be able to make new memories with my baby daughter.’
Sharing the decision to name his daughter after Jade, Freddy had told the publication: ‘I think it’s lovely to incorporate the name Jade into her name as a middle name as I am sure there will be part of my mother in Isla.’
He added: ‘Calling the baby Jade as the first name felt like too much expectation on the baby… I don’t want to put any pressure on her.’
The pair’s happy news comes soon after they rekindled their romance at a lavish baby shower.
Holly had previously called time on their relationship when she reportedly caught him ‘partying with girls’ and ‘smoking cannabis’ in her home.
After breaking up in November, the pair reconciled after she extended an olive branch by inviting him to the baby shower.
On reuniting with Holly, Freddy told The Sun at the time: ‘We are stronger than ever, it’s a fresh start for both of us.’
As for dad Jeff and brother Bobby, they have hinted that raising baby Isla Jade will be a family affair.
Former EastEnders and Strictly Come Dancing star told Daily Mail: ‘I’m excited to become an uncle.
‘It’s going to be a team effort, like raising anything is.’
Meanwhile, Jeff shared a cuddly selfie with his youngest son, joking on Instagram: ‘If someone could send me that parenting guidebook, particularly “early adult years the unconventional path” that would be really helpful, thanks [kiss emoji and laughing emoji].’
