The Oliver family are still on cloud nine following the safe arrival of a brand new baby boy. On Wednesday, proud grandmother Sally Oliver took to Instagram to share a photograph of her three-day-old grandson.
The image shows Jamie and Jool's third child, six-year-old Petal Blossom Rainbow, sitting on a window seat and holding the little newborn on a cushion. Delighted Petal looks up at the camera, a big smile on her face, as her as-yet unnamed brother sleeps peacefully in her arms.
