Sophie Ellis Bextor gives birth to fourth child


October 31, 2015

Sophie Ellis Bextor is celebrating the arrival of her fourth child with husband Richard Jones. The singer announced the birth of her son Jesse on her Instagram account on Saturday evening.

Sophie Ellis Bextor: "He's here! Baby Jesse Jones, born on Tuesday 3rd November and now home safe with his family"

The couple are already parents to Sonny, 11, Kit, six, and three-year-old Ray. The 36-year-old is devoted to her husband and children, and previously told HELLO! Online how the couple keep the spark alive.

"Richard is so kind and funny, he is a good man," she said. "We always make time for ourselves and go on date nights. It's good to sometimes be a bit selfish and ultimately the kids are happy when we're happy."

This is the fourth child for Sophie Ellis Bextor and husband Richard

Sophie sparked pregnancy rumours in May when she arrived at a fashion event on Tuesday with a fuller figure, but waited to confirm the exciting news on Twitter.

"Hello all. Been finding it a bit nice-but-strange to be congratulated on a pregnancy I haven’t actually announced yet…" Sophie wrote.

She then shared a picture of herself with Richard, in which she was pointing a finger at her stomach. The caption read: "What do you think, @thefeeling R? Is there a baby in there?"

Richard replied saying: "Yes there is!", leaving Sophie to confirm the news with a final tweet.

"Ah ok, cool! Mystery solved. Baby in autumn. Lovely! Xx".
