On Tuesday the 22nd of October, the former Miss Universe shared that she and husband Jake Wall had become parents to Frankie Violet Hawkins Wall.
Jennifer took to Instagram to share photos with her bundle of joy.
“Dream come true! So thankful to be holding our beautiful healthy baby girl! We couldn’t be more in love,” she wrote in the caption.
Hawkins shared three photos of the moment, including two of Frankie Violet resting on her chest and one of the little angel sleeping.
Her husband Jake also shared photos on his Instagram account, adding the caption:
“Welcome to the world Frankie Violet. Our hearts are full.”
According to The Herald Sun, Hawkins’ pregnancy had come after a challenging year, through which the Aussie beauty experienced a miscarriage, underwent surgery and faced a diagnosis of severe endometriosis.
“I feel so excited and so grateful just to be pregnant and feeling the kicks,” Hawkins told Stellar.
“When we went to see the heartbeat scan for our little girl, it was the most incredible, overwhelming feeling because prior to that we were so scared.”
“Last year was such a tough year for Jake and me. It was the toughest year of our lives,” she continued.
“I felt like I almost broke and, in fact, it’s still really raw. But Jake was amazing. He let me sit with the pain, feel it and not be OK.”
The new mum also said she was not taking the pregnancy for granted.
“I had so many years of planning, but the one thing I so dearly wanted couldn’t be planned.”
Hawkins and Wall have been married for six years and run a tequila business called Sesión with Shane McKillen and Tim Freeburn.
