Former Hollyoaks star Ali Bastian has welcomed a baby daughter with husband David O'Mahoney.
Speaking to OK!, Ali announced the happy news, telling the magazine: "She's arrived! David and I welcomed our beautiful little girl into the world last Saturday.
"Isla is the proudest big sister! Our little family are snuggling in together for her fourth trimester and will be back with more news soon!"
Ali and David are already parents to a daughter named Isla Rose, who is now almost three years old. Back in September, Ali shared the sweet way that Isla found out she was going to be a big sister.
"Isla came into our room one morning and we were having snuggles," Ali explained, saying she and David then spontaneously agreed to tell her.
"I said, 'Have you noticed that mummy's tummy has been getting bigger?' and she said 'Yes!'. I said, 'I've got a baby in my tummy'. And then there was this big smile across her face.

"I wish we had captured that, it was magical, I'll never forget it. She understood. I said, 'You are going to be a big sister' and her face lit up."
Ali is best known for her role as Becca Dean (previously Becca Hayton) on Hollyoaks between 2001 and 2007.
She then went on to star in The Bill, and as Becky Clarke in BBC soap opera Doctors, and has made guest appearances in the likes of Death in Paradise and Holby City.
Ali also competed on Strictly Come Dancing in 2009, placing third with her pro partner Brian Fortuna.
