Smash's Katharine McPhee, 36, welcomes first child with husband David Foster, 71

Katharine McPhee has become a mum for the first time.

The Smash actress, 36, has welcomed a little boy with her husband David Foster, 71.

She married the Canadian musician and producer in 2019.

Their representative told People : "Katharine McPhee and David Foster have welcomed a healthy baby boy. Mom, Dad and son are all doing wonderfully."

Sources had confirmed back in October that the couple were expecting their first child together.

The news came after they were spotted shopping for baby things in California after grabbing lunch together.

David, who was previously married to Linda Thompson and Yolanda Hadid, tied the knot with Katharine in June 2019.

David, who has been married five times in total, is already dad to daughters Sara, 40, Erin, 38, and Jordan, 34, who he shares with second wife Rebecca Dyer, as well as daughters Allison, 50, and Amy, 47, from previous relationships.

She debuted her blossoming bump in December as she posed up in a long blue coat to smile for a stunning mirror selfie.

Just three days ago, she shared beautiful picture of herself lovingly cradling her bump while carrying her pet dog in a sling.

She was dressed in a pretty floral dress and trainers, with a cardigan slung over her shoulders and a face mask on to keep safe amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

"This is so CUTE," Little Mix's Perrie Edwards wrote in the comments.

On Valentine's Day, Katharine celebrated her marriage to David in a sweet post.

She shared a snap of herself posing on the beach in a red two-piece as he nuzzled into her neck.

She penned: "My forever Valentine!! My best friend, my favorite person, my motivator, my everyday! @davidfoster I looove you cookie. #happyvalentinesday"
