YouTube star and plus size model Grace Victory seemed to be in good spirits as she took to Twitter to tell her followers that her “baby boy is thriving” after the pair were reunited.
Grace recently told her online subscribers that she was now “awake” after doctors had placed her into an induced coma after her body became increasingly weak while battling the coronavirus.
The 30-year-old online star was admitted to intensive care on Christmas day, just a day after giving birth to her first child.
Doctors were forced to deliver her baby son early after Grace became “too unwell to carry on with the pregnancy”.

Her family explained that Grace’s Covid-19 symptoms seemed mild at first but within days her health had drastically declined.
After an extremely worrying period for her loved ones, Grace has confirmed to her YouTube subscribers that she is now awake and on the mend.
Returning to social media for the first time while providing fans with some needed reassurance, she penned: “I’m awake. Baby boy is thriving at home x.”

The tremendous recovery news lands after her family had last updated fans at the end of 2020, explaining that Grace had “responded well to treatment.”
“We as a family are truly overwhelmed by the amount of love and well wishes sent to our Grace and we want to thank each and every one of you for casting a light of hope our way.
“Please still keep Grace in your thoughts and prayers. Let’s get her home. Love family and bubba x,” read the statement from her family.

Just five days prior, her loved ones issued some devastating news to the influencer’s followers which made it seem as though her health was touch and go at the time.
They announced previously: “As you guys know, Grace gave birth on Christmas Eve to a beautiful baby boy, who is currently doing so well, he’s incredible. We love him so much.
“Grace developed Covid-19 two weeks ago and although her symptoms were mild at first, they worsened as the days went on.
“Which meant they had to deliver the baby as soon as possible, as she was just too unwell to carry on with the pregnancy.”
They went on: “Grace was admitted into intensive care on Christmas Day due to issues with her breathing and therefore they had to make the decision of placing her into an induced coma, to give her body the rest it needs, in order to recover.”
The brutal battle with the virus saw Grace spend almost two weeks in hospital before she was released.
As she began her recovery, she told her subscribers that she’d been totally “burnt out” and was on the “verge of having anaemia” before doctors intervened.
