Marco Pierre White Junior's baby is born as he releases first pics of daughter

Marco Pierre White Junior has released the first ever photos of his newborn daughter as his girlfriend gave birth via C-section.

Their first child is named Arabella Rosa and she was born at 11:34am today, weighing 7.4oz.

Delighted dad Marco, whose father is celebrity chef Marco Pierre White, posted several photos and videos of him cuddling his gorgeous baby, who was sporting an adorable knitted white hat.

Marco, 24, appeared in Celebrity Big Brother in 2016, and has since grabbed headlines with his drug taking and wild partying behaviour, including a cocaine-fuelled night with a prostitute he documented on Instagram .

But it seem these days are behind him as he becomes a dedicated father to Arabella, and his excitement in the lead up to the C-section was palpable.

This morning the heavily tattooed hunk posted a beaming photo with the caption: "It's the big day not long until I meet my little angel".

He also posted a photo the night before where he kissed his girlfriend's bump and wrote "not long left".

The identity of his girlfriend is not yet known, but Marco has said she isn't his ex and was someone he had met a year ago.

Dressed in hospital scrubs, Marco planted a kiss on his newborn's head while she was swaddled in a blanket.

He also posted a video with his girlfriend's sister who he covered in kisses and delighted in telling her she was an auntie.

He told fans the birth went incredibly well, and that his girlfriend was sleeping while Arabella had just had her first feed and then cuddled up to her dad.

Arabella already owns a puppy which her dad bought for her before she was born.

Marco shared a clip of him cuddling up to a tiny puppy on Instagram, saying: "So I just bought this little puppy for my daughter.

"I'm gonna spoil the f*** out of my girls," he vowed.

He appears to have made an attempt to clean up his act, swapping his party ­lifestyle for the country life at his dad's ­Wiltshire farm last year and has been attending rehab.

But in September last year he was seen snorting a white substance on a park bench with his then girlfriend Francesca Suter close by.

Marco Senior, 56, supported his son during a battle with drink and drugs which saw him blow £250,000 on a binge in Ibiza when he was just 16.

Arabella is Marco Senior's first grandchild.
