Lucy Mecklenburgh has finally chosen a name for daughter three weeks after giving birth

Lucy Mecklenburgh has revealed her and partner Ryan Thomas have finally picked a name for their newborn daughter - though they have yet to share it with fans.

UPDATE: Lucy has now shared the adorable baby name with her fans.

The reality TV star, 30, gave birth to her second child with her actor beau, 38, last month - with the baby understood to have arrived more than a week after her due date.

The couple were already parents to their young son Roman Thomas, two, and Ryan has a daughter - Scarlett Thomas, 13 - from his previous relationship with Tina O'Brien, 38.

And following the birth of her second child, Lucy had been open with fans about the "difficulty" in choosing a name for their new arrival, who is now already a few weeks old.
