She wrote: 'Jesse and I are over the moon and buzzing with love, as our baby daughter Honey Krissy Wood came into the world this morning.'

The newborn is a younger sister to her son Rex, who was born in February 2013.

The tot appears to be named after Jesse's mother Krissy Findlay, who passed away in June 2005 

Fearne previously revealed that Jesse's two children from a previous relationship, as well as their two-year-old son Rex, were all eager to name the baby.

She said: 'My little boy Rex and his older brother and sister Arthur and Lola are so excited, they've all already come up with about a million names for the baby, and are really, really excited. 

'So in the Wood household we're all happy, and really, really good.'

After announcing her pregnancy in February, the blonde beauty revealed she would be leaving her BBC Radio 1 show in May after 10 years with the station.

She continued: 'It's been a huge decision and I'll miss being here so, so much. But I've been here 10 years, so it's time for a new chapter.

'I'm feeling very lucky, blessed, and slightly sick still, but aside from that I'm feeling really, really brilliant and really, really happy.

'I'm going to leave here, at Radio 1, with friends that I've made for life, bursting with the best memories ever. It's been such an amazing decade.'
