Bobby’s middle name ‘Brian’ is a nod to Jess’ late father, who sadly lost his battle with cancer in September 2020.
A host of well-known faces took to the comments section of the couple’s Instagram post to congratulate them.
Doireann Garrihy wrote: “Massive congratulations guys, he’s absolutely beautiful 🥹💙,” and Jennifer Zamparelli said: “Huge congratulations! What a beaut. Enjoy every second x.”
Joanna Cooper wrote: “Congratulations both of you, he’s so beautiful 🥹🤍,” while Rob’s brother and fellow rugby player Dave simply penned: “❤️.”
Rob and Jess announced they were expecting their first child back in February.
Sharing photos showing off her growing baby bump at the time, the pharmacist wrote: “We’ve been praying for you 🕊️ 🤍.”
The couple tied the knot at the five star Trump International Hotel in Doonbeg, Co.Clare in December 2021.
After eight years together, Rob and Jess said ‘I do’ at St. Senan’s Church in Kilrush on December 3, before hosting their wedding reception at the Trump International Hotel.
Rob and Jess’ wedding venue, which was bought by Donald Trump in 2014 for a reported €9 million, had a special connection to the pharmacist’s late father.
The pair were initially set to wed in June 2021, but brought their wedding date forward to November of 2020, after Jess’ dad Brian became ill.
The influencer was hoping her father would get to walk her down the aisle, but he sadly died in September 2020 at the age of 70 – following a battle with prostate cancer.
