Louise Cooney has welcomed her first child with her boyfriend Mark Sweeney.
The Limerick native shared the news via Instagram on Thursday, writing: “Jude 07.11.23.”
“You have changed our world forever. We are so in love.”
Louise announced she’s expecting her first child with her boyfriend Mark on May 21.
Alongside a photo of her and Mark holding a baby scan, the Limerick native wrote: “Soon to be 3 👶🏼❤️ We’ve never known this much happiness and excitement 🥰#2023baby.”
Louise and Mark started dating during the first coronavirus lockdown, and the couple moved into a stunning duplex apartment in Dublin at the end of 2021.
Louise previously gushed about her relationship with Mark in an interview with Magazine+.
She said: “People always say ‘it happens when you don’t expect it’ and I find that kind of condescending because I still think you need to put yourself out there — if you don’t, it’s going to be hard for you to meet somebody.”
“I think when you’re totally ok by yourself, that’s when it’s a good time to meet someone.”
