Former The Bachelorette contestant Emily Maynard has welcomed a baby boy, her first child with husband Tyler Johnson.

The dozing newborn wore in a cute cap and was wrapped protectively in a cosy white blanket as he nested up to Maynard, who rested a protective hand on his head.
The infant is Maynard's first child with husband Johnson, whom she wed last year in a country wedding. The baby's name was not revealed.
Maynard is already mother to daughter Ricki, 10, from her relationship with late fiance Ricky Hendrick, who was killed in a plane crash in 2004.
Maynard did not find out she was pregnant with their daughter until after NASCAR driver Hendrick's tragic death.

The jewelry designer became engaged to The Bachelor Brad Womack on season 15 of the reality dating show, before they split.
But the blonde beauty didn't give up her search for love, signing on to be The Bachelorette for season eight.
The first single mother to appear as The Bachelorette, Maynard became engaged to former contestant Jef Holm in the season finale in 2012. However, the pair called off their relationship later that year.

But it seems the Southern sweetie has at last found true love again with auto consultant Johnson.
The pair met in church and wed at his parents' farm in South Carolina last year.
Maynard revealed the baby's sex in May, joking that she and Johnson were still arguing over names.

'I told Tyler that if he gets to pick the last name for everybody, then I should get to pick the first name and if he wants to pick the first name, then he can take my last name and be a Maynard,' she told Charlotte, North Caroline TV station WCCB in May.
'He did not like that,' she said. 'So, we're still compromising.'
