Alex Bourne, ex-husband to former S Club 7 star Rachel Stevens, has welcomed his first child with his new wife, Lily Amber Bourne.

Bourne, a property mogul, and art dealer Lily tied the knot in February of this year, having met in early 2024. Their son's birth marks a significant new chapter for them.

Stevens has spoken openly about the challenges of her divorce and subsequent relationships, describing the process as "jumping off a cliff" and admitting to struggling with emotional withdrawal. Despite these challenges, she remains optimistic about finding love again, identifying herself as a "hopeless romantic."
