Prince Harry's ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy has shared her first picture of her baby son Leo on Instagram.

The former City lawyer welcomed her first child in January with husband Sam Cutmore-Scott, 37, 'without virtually anyone knowing she was pregnant', according to The Daily Mail's Richard Eden.

But the new mother, also 37, who split up with Harry after a seven-year relationship, proudly showed off her son in an adorable snap shared to her social media account today.

Shared alongside a blue heart emoji, the photo showed the stunning blonde cuddling up to her baby while standing on a balcony in front of a picturesque sea view at an unspecified location. 

Both mother and son looked away from the camera, with Ms Davy sporting a cut-out blue top and denim shorts in the image. The jewellery designer wed Mr Cutmore-Scott, a successful hotelier who was in the year above Harry at Eton, in a secret ceremony, it emerged earlier this year.

Her son's birth was kept so private that his arrival only emerged three months later after he was introduced to their local parish council in Norfolk. Many of Chelsy's friends didn't even know she had become pregnant in lockdown.

Sam is the brother of Jack Cutmore-Scott, 35, the dashing Hollywood actor best known for his role in Christopher Nolan’s Oscar-winning film Tenet and the drama series Deception. 

The siblings are close, and Chelsy is believed to have spent time with him in LA since she met her now husband around three years ago. They were first pictured together on a family holiday to Mauritius over Christmas 2019.

Oxford graduate Cutmore-Scott is managing director at The Harper Hotel in Holt, the family business, and the couple are believed to split their time between a townhouse in Chiswick and the Norfolk coast.

‘They are married,’ a friend told the Daily Mail's Richard Eden in May 2022, adding: ‘Very few people knew about the wedding.’

Chelsy found her man after an 'on-again, off-again', relationship with Harry, who had told friends before they split in 2011 that she was 'the best thing that's ever happened to me'. 

They had met in London when they were both at school but got together in 2004, during Harry's gap year travels in Zimbabwe, where Chelsy's millionaire father owns and runs a game reserve.

It became so serious palace officials remarked that he had started calling her 'wifey' and she in turn called him 'hubby'. 

It was clearly serious when Chelsy would not only attend Harry's cousin Peter Phillips' wedding to Autumn Kelly - where she was introduced to the Queen - but she would also be invited to Prince Charles's 60th birthday celebrations.

Chelsy began dating Prince Harry (pictured together in 2006) while she was a pupil at Cheltenham Ladies' College, with the duo breaking up in 2010

But the pressures of their conflicting careers and long periods apart as Harry served in Afghanistan took their toll yet again. They split in 2010 and Chelsy has remained largely out of the spotlight in the 12 years since.

Party-loving Chelsy, who was born in Zimbabwe and now runs a jewellery and luxury travel business, revealed in 2020 that she had a serious boyfriend. 

At the time she did not give his name, explaining: 'There is someone, and I am quite taken by this one, but it's very new and I don't want to say too much.'

Her last known boyfriend before then was dashing television producer James Marshall, from whom she split in 2018.
