Australian model Olivia Molly Rogers has welcomed her first child into the world after much anticipation from her social media community.
Baby Boy Arrives
The 34-year-old Tell Me More podcast host has been keeping her online fans up to date with her pregnancy journey, and they were overjoyed to learn Rogers had given birth to a healthy baby on Monday.
“Our boy, Albert Nigel Breakey, is here,” she revealed on Instagram with a sweet video of her precious sleeping angel tucked up in a blanket.
Her friends and followers immediately filled the comments section of the post with messages of happiness for Rogers and her partner, Hugo.
MAFS star Martha Kalifatidis said: “Congratulations, my girl, it is the best! Enjoy.”
Bec Judd said: “Biggest congratulations, beautiful.”
Tayla Broad, DJ Tigerlily and Olympia Valance all congratulated the couple while Kellie Finlayson said: “Welcome precious little man. Ahhhhh so special, congrats mumma.”
In the lead-up to Albert’s birth, the 2017 Miss Universe Australia winner previously revealed she’d been “dreaming” of becoming a mum her whole life.
“One day you’re dreaming of having a baby, wondering if it will ever happen to you,” she said in a TikTok post at 39 weeks pregnant.
“The next, you’re passing time by painting a bookshelf for his nursery, counting down the days until you meet your little boy.”
However, at one stage in her life, she was preparing to become a single parent and froze her eggs after her marriage to her ex-husband Justin McKeone broke down in 2022.
The pair were only married for seven months before they separated, with Rogers previously admitting her mother said it was okay if she wanted to call off the wedding.
“Something happened a few nights before the wedding ... that really crossed boundaries for me, and Mum was there,” she told the Inherited podcast.
“In the morning on the Thursday, she said to me, ‘We can call the wedding off, you don’t have to go ahead with it.’”
But Rogers said her friends and family had made a lot of effort to attend the wedding, and couldn’t let them down.
New Love and Family
Enter Breakey. The pair met by chance in 2023 during a night out and soon fell in love.
The couple’s baby announcement comes as McKeone faces bankruptcy over alleged debt owed to a former employer.
The Melbourne socialite was chased in the Federal Court for more than $550,000 after failing to comply with a court order to pay back allegedly stolen funds.
The 38-year-old was charged with a string of offences relating to obtaining financial advantage following a 15-month investigation by Yarra Crime Investigation Unit detectives.
