At the time, she said she’d faced trolling after talking about her relatively quick labour. She explained that she had been in labour for five hours and had to push for just 20 minutes.

“Little bit sick of the grief I am getting after posting this yesterday,” she told her detractors. “By no means was I bragging of having an ‘easy birth’ it wasn’t like that at all.”

She added: “So for those wondering, I was induced the evening before and had my waters broke the following morning at 7am and Hugh was in my arms by 12.31pm.”

She added that she’d given birth to their “precious boy” on November 10,  at precisely 11:27pm.

He weighed 7lbs and 10oz at time of birth.
