Jack and Roxy took Elsie home from the Lindo Wing at St Mary’s in London earlier this month.
The Lindo Wing has hosted a host of royal births, including the Princess of Wales, who welcomed her three children there, as well as many other famous faces.
After bringing their baby home, Jack was full of love as he praised ‘amazing’ Roxy and shared the first photos of their newborn daughter.
Via Instagram, Jack admitted that the experience was both “completely overwhelming” and “joyful” in ways he “couldn’t have imagined.”
He wrote: ‘Well this just happened! Completely overwhelming and joyful in ways I couldn’t even imagine.
“I’m in awe of my partner @roxyhorner, who has been amazing throughout this journey and will be the best mom ever. I’m so excited to have started a family of my own.
‘After swearing I would never be that guy, I am now 100% the parent who shows everyone endless pictures of their child. I also wore Skechers to the hospital, I guess I have to accept that I’m a full-fledged dad now.
“As for the name, after this weekend I think ‘rice, rice, baby’ sounds nice.”
