Nicole Appleton and Stephen Haines were seen for the first time with their daughter Skipper, two months, since her surprise arrival.

The former All Saints siner, 45, and the Facebook executive, 47, appeared in great spirits as they stepped out for some fresh air with their baby girl during a casual stroll in London on Sunday.

In March, the mother-of-two shocked fans when she revealed she had given birth after ‘hiding her pregnancy from all of her friends’.

Nicole seems to be settling into life as a mother of two well, after announcing her secret pregnancy. 

The musician shared the surprise news on Instagram earlier this year, alongside an image of her newborn baby and Stephen.

She shared a second close-up snap of her daughter, as well as a picture of her baby bump as she sat in bed. 

The media personality wrote: ‘After hiding my pregnancy for the last 9 months…which was SOOOOO difficult & keeping her a secret from all my friends.

‘I can finally announce our incredible news!!..Our little girl ‘Skipper Hudson Haines’ has arrived Stephen & Gene are besotted!!! I’m SOOO HAPPY!!’

The blonde was pictured out for the first time with Stephen in March 2019 and the couple have been dating since November 2018. 

Nicole’s business savvy partner is thought to be the commercial director at Facebook and is said to be close friends with the social media site’s founder Mark Zuckerberg. 

The songstress went Instagram official with her boyfriend in February 2019 when they shared a picture of themselves in matching dressing gowns at Soho Farmhouse.  

The English-Canadian beauty is also mother to son Gene, 18, from her relationship to Liam Gallagher, with the pair marrying in 2008 and separating just five years later. 

The former couple divorced in April 2014 after she discovered he had fathered a child with American journalist Liza Ghorbani. 

Just as Nicole has moved on, the Once singer is engaged to his partner Debbie Gwyther. 

Christine and Paddy McGuinness briefly split after he enjoyed a secret night out with Nicole back in February 2018, while she stayed at home to look after the kids.

Nicole was then branded a ‘hypocrite’ after slamming Lily Allen, 35, on social media over reports that she was writing a book which included information about a fling with Liam back in 2009.
