Myleene Klass, 41, unveils first pictures of baby son after complicated birth

Myleene Klass has revealed the first pictures of her gorgeous newborn son as she gushes about becoming a mum again in her 40s.

The 41-year-old is already mum to daughter Ava, 12, and Hero, eight, with ex-husband Graham Quinn.

She welcomed baby boy Apollo on August 1st will her new boyfriend Simon Motson.

Despite having a traumatic birth, Myleene says she's "loving every minute" of being a new mum again - including the gruelling night feeds.

Speaking to Hello! magazine, Myleene revealed things initially went smoothly when her waters broke but quickly became more serious.

“My waters broke and I was in the birthing pool. We had a really easy first three hours, to the point that I thought we would all be home by 7pm.

“But I don’t remember what happened next.

“I lost five hours of my life and it was a pretty complicated birth in the end.”

The radio presenter also told of how her recent experience was a very different experience compared to giving birth in her 20s and 30s.

“Having a baby in your 40s is an extremely different experience,” she explained.

“I love the night feeds - it’s a privilege to look at his little face during the night. I know how quickly this will go.

“I’m loving every single minute. I even miss my baby bump.”

Apollo is the first child for Myleene and her partner Simon Motson, 45, a fashion PR. Like her, he has two children from his previous marriage.

Myleene’s former husband Graham Quinn, father of her two daughters, walked out on her just six months after their wedding. She later admitted to turning to drink to get through the ordeal.

After meeting Motson she gushed: “I just thank my lucky stars. I can’t believe I’m here and that everything has aligned.

“And the fact I could have missed out on having such an incredible man in my life would have been the biggest travesty of all.”
