Jesinta Franklin has given birth to her first child with husband and AFL star Lance โBuddyโ Franklin, an adorable baby girl.
The 28-year-old former Miss Universe Australia announced the happy news via a statement to the Daily Telegraph and revealed her sweet name as well.
โJesinta and Lance are thrilled to announce the arrival of their beautiful baby daughter, Tallulah Franklin,โ a spokeswoman told the publication.
โThey are both absolutely besotted with her.โ
Back in August, Jesinta announced her pregnancy on her personal app, with her announcement hinting at her long fertility struggle.
โMy husband and I are so incredibly excited and overjoyed to announce that we have a baby on the way,โ Jesinta wrote, adding that the process of falling pregnant was not a simple one.

Itโs a girl!

โWe have both dreamt of this for a long time and whilst the last 2.5 years have been physically and emotionally challenging, thereโs nothing we would change as itโs brought us to this beautiful moment.
โThe immense love we already have for our baby is indescribable and we canโt wait to meet our little miracle.โ

โBecause I had struggled to fall pregnant and there had been losses along the way, as a woman who had been through that I felt like I was doing so many couples a disservice to come out and say, โSurprise, we are pregnant,โ because I know that would make me feel even worse about our pregnancy journey,โ Jesinta told the Herald Sun, hinting at several miscarriages.
โI wanted other women to find comfort in the fact that this was not a surprise. It really was an effort and took us a long time.โ

But the Olay and Tiffany & Co ambassador, who has described her first trimester as โlike the worst hangover times 1000 for 12 weeks straightโ, said she couldnโt care less about gaining a few extra kilos, even joking that she had become quite โtop-heavyโ.
โThere are lots of different stretch marks that I didnโt have before and Iโve noticed some cellulite and Iโve gone up a few sizes, but I could put on 100kg and have a body covered in stretch marks and it would not bother me at all,โ she told the Herald Sun.
โMy physical appearance and how I look means nothing to me in comparison to having a baby and starting a family.โ
