The 'EastEnders' actress and boyfriend Dan Osbourne - who already has 13-month-old son Teddy from a previous relationship - welcomed "perfect" Ella into the world yesterday (15.02.15) and the couple couldn't be happier.

Jacqueline wrote on Twitter: "Baby ella osborne was born yesterday thankyou @DannyO and @Sarabro2 for everything. Amazing. She's perfect x (sic)"

And Dan also used the site to announce: "So so so so happy to tell you all!! Our baby girl Ella arrived yesterday evening @jacquelineMjos done SO well, proud of you. I love you."

Details of the new arrival's weight have not yet been announced.

The 22-year-old actress recently admitted she "panicked and stressed out" when she first found out she was pregnant.

Speaking of when they found out the news, Dan said: "I just froze and Jackie was giggling, then I was, then I said to her, 'We need to go and tell your mum, now.' "

Jacqueline added: "I couldn't stop laughing, I giggle at the most awkward situations. My first thought wasn't to tell my mum.

"Then I started panicking, stressing out and going crazy and was like, 'No stop, you're freaking me out.'

"Our emotions were all over the place - at first I was emotional and then I went numb then Dan went numb and then got emotional, we met in the middle somewhere.

"Then he fell asleep and started snoring, I wanted to punch him in the face."
