Lucy Mecklenburgh and Ryan Thomas have welcomed a baby boy.

The 28-year-old confirmed their happy news with an adorable photo of the newborn, which showed his hand curled around her finger. In the caption, she also shared the name that they had picked for their baby boy: Roman Ravello Thomas. The couple had a massive year last year, after announcing their engagement in June and Lucy's pregnancy in late August. In September, they shared a video of the moment they found out they were expecting a boy. The footage shows the couple sitting in a cafe, with the printed-out version of the gender confirmation in Lucy's hand. "Shall I read it to you?" the 28-year-old asks him, before starting to scan through the papers. Ryan is seen rubbing his hands together excitedly, before Lucy confirms they are expecting a baby boy - which causes him to burst into laughter. "It's a boy," he shouts excitedly, before continuing the celebrations. Lucy and Ryan announced they were expecting their first child together in late August - on the former TOWIE star's 28th birthday, to be exact. The photo shows the pair sitting in front of a bunch of silver and gold balloons, as they hold up a baby grow. "Best birthday present I’ve ever had. Love you," Lucy captioned the photo. Roman is Mecklenburgh's first child. Thomas shares a daughter, Scarlett, with his ex Tine O'Brien.
