Frankie Essex has given birth to twins
The former 'The Only Way is Essex' star - who is the sister of former co-star Joey Essex - has welcomed a boy and a girl into the world with her partner Luke Love.
She told OK!: "Double the love. Our baby bears have arrived"
In February, the 34-year-old reality star - who has been in a relationship with Luke for three years - revealed she was pregnant with twins, and admitted it was a huge "shock".
She said at the time: "I was just so shocked. How we found out was really lovely.
"The lady scanning me was focusing on one baby and was then like, ‘What else do we have here then?’ and I was so shocked and asked, ‘Are we having twins?’ I burst out crying, tears of happiness. It was just so beautiful. It was lovely.
"We had an early scan as we were so excited. There are no twins in the family and we conceived naturally. They’re not identical.
"It was such a shock, but it’s a blessing and we are so over the moon. It’s amazing. As soon as we told the family, I asked if twins run on either side and as far as we all know, they don’t."
In March, Frankie revealed she expecting a boy and a girl following a gender reveal party.
Her brother Joey shared clips from the celebration on his Instagram Story.
In one, Frankie was joined by her cousin Chloe Sims and she then took to the mic to thank her guests for coming and urged them to go into the garden to watch some fireworks to find out whether she was expecting boys, girls, or "one of each".
She said: "Everyone come outside and celebrate with us. We are so excited."
Joey then shared a video of blue and pink fireworks exploding in the sky, before panning the camera over to Frankie, who celebrated by kissing Luke.
He captioned his post: "A proud brother about to become an uncle, congratulations to my sister and Luke. Boy and girl."
