Sam Faiers announces baby sons traditional name after welcoming third child with Paul Knightley

Sam Faiers has announced her baby son's name, after welcoming her third child with partner Paul Knightley.

Mum-of-three Sam revealed that her baby boy, who was born on 15 May, is called Edward.

The 31 year old announced his gorgeous name in a post on Instagram, along with a sweet new snap of her baby boy.

She wrote: "Edward Knightley. A month ago today you were born at home surrounded by so much love.

"It’s for sure been a game changer for mummy having 3 little Knightley’s, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. I have soaked up every second with you darling, this is just the beginning..

"Whilst it feels like this month has gone really quick, I can’t help but think what an amazing month it’s been. I’ve really taken each day to just rest & be with my little newborn. I think I have an extra 5000 new images on my camera role. I couldn’t even think about doing much else than being at home with my family and really taking this time to settle the baby in & just all be together. I still have a way to go yet, this adjustment has been super full on but equally loving every moment. I’m so proud my heart could burst.

"Last thing.. thank you so so much for everyone’s kind messages. I often read through all my DM’s during night feeds so thank you."

Former TOWIE star Sam is already mum to Paul Jr, six, and daughter Rosie, four, with her partner Paul, 34.

Before giving birth, Sam revealed that she already had her baby name picked out.

"I’ve got a boy name that I love and always have loved and I’ve also got a girl’s name that I’ve always loved, but I’m not sharing it,” she told sister Billie Shepherd on their podcast, The Sam & Billie Show.

She added to Billie: “I think you already know,” to which she replied: “I know the boy's name but I’m not sure on the girl's name.”

The family have been adapting to life as a fivesome and Sam has revealed that Paul and Rosie are doting over their baby brother since his arrival.


Sam shared a sweet picture of Paul and Rosie huddled around their little brother as she tried to change his nappy.

Sharing the gorgeous post to her 2.5million followers, she wrote: "This is what I get every morning when I'm trying to change the baby. Two little birds nests, they don't leave him alone, bless them."

The star also shared a new photograph of herself beaming as she cradled her little boy, who was wrapped in a snuggly white blanket, and another of her children watching over the newborn on the sofa.


Sam announced the arrival of her third child in a gorgeous post on Instagram.

Alongside a sweet montage video, she wrote: “No words can describe how in love we are with you baby boy. I honestly can’t explain my feelings right now.

"Mummy loves you more than you could ever imagine. In our baby bubble currently. be back soon.”

She later shared an adorable photo of her newborn son to celebrate Paul’s 34th birthday.

Sharing an image of Paul planting a kiss on their baby boy’s cheek, she wrote: "Happy birthday daddy," alongside a red balloon emoji on top of the image, tagging her beau.
