Anne-Marie, 34, gives birth to second child as popstar shares adorable first snaps of newborn son
Singer Anne-Marie has given birth to her second child with husband Slowthai, announcing the happy news on Instagram today and sharing a series of photos, including adorable snaps of her newborn baby boy.
The couple, who married in 2022, have welcomed their son just over a year after the birth of their daughter, Seven, in February 2024, with the star keeping fans updated throughout her pregnancy journey.
In her Instagram announcement post, Anne-Marie wrote: “Another beautiful little thing has entered our lives. Hello everyone,” accompanied by heart and sunshine emojis.
The photos shared included images of her in labour and tender moments with her newborn son, including one where the tot was holding onto her finger with a smiley face tattoo.
The former Voice UK judge had previously made her second pregnancy public in February this year after hiding her first pregnancy from her fans, even throughout her tour.
This joyful announcement comes shortly after Slowthai, whose real name is Tyron Kaymone Frampton, was found not guilty of rape charges.

The singer revealed the gender of her baby during an appearance on Capital Breakfast in April, and when asked by presenter Sian Welby if she knew what she was having, Anne-Marie replied: “Yeah, it’s a boy!”
“That’s so exciting!” co-host Chris Stark responded to the news, before the singer admitted she was content with having “one of each” child, adding “then I’m done.”
She also joked about the difficulty of choosing a name, saying they couldn’t “just call him Barry” after giving their daughter such a unique name.
During her second pregnancy, Anne-Marie revealed she developed gestational diabetes, with the health condition forcing her to abandon her vegetarian lifestyle.
“The other day I really wanted to eat a steak, and I’ve never eaten steak in my whole life. I’ve got gestational diabetes this time, though. So yeah, that’s annoying because I can’t eat cereal or bread,” Anne-Marie added when speaking to the Capital Breakfast hosts.
The star had previously opened up about 2024 being “the most beautiful yet hardest year” of her life.
The couple’s celebrity friends were quick to congratulate them on their new arrival.
Singer Craig David commented “Congratulations” on Anne-Marie’s Instagram post before Amanda Holden simply penned: “Congratulations” with a love heart eye emoji.
Fans also shared their excitement, with one writing: “Omg I’m so happy for you. You are the best mother.”
Another enthusiastic follower commented: “CONGRATULATIONS MUMMA IM SO PROUD OF YOU!!!” (sic)
Many of her fans were quick to write their congratulatory posts, with many noting that she was going to be the “best boy mum” as well as including Seven in the journey.
The couple, who are believed to have started dating in early 2022, have yet to reveal the name of their son, which could happen in a couple of weeks or months if they follow the way they announced their daughters name.
