The Traitors star Maddy Smedley has given birth to a baby girl. <\/p>\n
The reality TV star announced her little one's arrival with some gorgeous pictures, as she also revealed her sweet name. <\/p>\n
Maddy and partner Tom Greenwood have called their little girl, Shelby Rae.<\/p>\n
Sharing a series of snaps of her cuddling her newborn in hospital, new mum Maddy wrote: "Welcome to the world Shelby Rae, love you so much already."<\/p>\n
In another sweet look at her baby girl, Maddy captioned a video: "Shelby Rae our little girl – feel so lucky – 23.09.23 – 6lb 3."<\/p>\n

Messages of congratulations soon came in, with Coronation Street's Alexandra Mardell writing: "Maddy! So so chuffed for you all! So beautiful! Can\u2019t wait to meet her! All the love to you three."<\/p>\n
Maddy announced the news of her pregnancy back in May as she shared a sweet montage of pictures, showing the beaming couple as they held up their baby scan ultrasound snaps.<\/p>\n
Playing Megan McKenna's 'This' over the video, it also featured an emotional clip of Maddy sharing the news with her mum – recording the moment as she handed her an envelope with the ultrasound inside.<\/p>\n
Sharing the video, the then mother-to-be penned: "Telling my mum and sisters. we can\u2019t wait to meet you! Love you so much already."<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While she also noted their joy with an Instagram Story post, sweetly writing: "Got some news! Wanna scream it from the rooftops! We can't wait to meet you, love you so much already xx".<\/p>\n
Maddy took part in the first ever UK series of The Traitors in 2022, which saw 22 strangers living in a Scottish castle to complete a series of challenges and missions together as a team and win \u00a3120,000. Amongst the loyal contestants are three secret traitors who are sabotaging their efforts and picking off contestants one by one.<\/p>\n
She managed to make it far during her stint on the show, being booted out of the castle just one day before the final, despite being a Faithful.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
