Jessica Rowe is settling into motherhood after the birth of her daughter Allegra Penelope on Thursday night in Sydney.
The Today host and her husband Peter Overton are delighted with their long-awaited first child who was conceived after four IVF attempts.
“Each day brings new discoveries about our precious little daughter,” says new mum Jessica. “The feeling of being parents is overwhelming.”
The couple chose the name Allegra — which means ‘joyful’ in Italian — because Peter had been filming for 60 Minutes in Italy when Jessica called to tell him she’d fallen pregnant.
Jessica and Peter are taking some time out from their busy schedules to enjoy parenthood and get to know their daughter.
“We are overjoyed by the arrival of our little miracle Allegra Penelope Overton,” says the proud new mum. “It was the happiest day of our lives and we feel blessed to be a family.”
