Television personality Danielle Armstrong has celebrated one week since giving birth to her baby daughter Orla by sharing intimate snaps from the special moment.
The former TOWIE cast member, 32, took to her official Instagram account on Wednesday to post two sweet snaps of her newborn, whom she welcomed with fiancé Tom Edney on May 27.
In one black and white photograph taken shortly after giving birth, new mum Danielle looked radiant as she cradled her baby daughter on her bare chest while lying in the hospital bed.
Danielle also shared a sweet snap of Orla wearing an adorable pink floral dress and collar as she peacefully slept in her cot.

One fan gushed: “So beautiful.”
“She is perfect,” added another.
Danielle’s TOWIE co-star Chloe Sims penned: “Aww so cute.”

The TV star also posted additional pictures to her Instagram Stories as well as a video of her daughter keeping cosy in a personalised blanket.
She also posted a clip of herself cradling her daughter in her arms in a sweet update.
It comes after Danielle candidly discussed her “tough” birth after she welcomed an overdue Orla last week, who weighed 8Ibs 11oz.
The Essex beauty was very vocal about being overdue with her first child as she struggled with the last days of her pregnancy as she awaited the arrival, which she branded “tough”.

When announcing the exciting news last week, Danielle posted adorable snaps of her new arrival and penned: “My world is complete. Orla Mae Edney born May 26th at 16:30pm, weighing a healthy 8Ibs 11.”
After revealing the joyous news, Danielle shared a short clip breastfeeding her newborn as she admitted she felt as though she had been “hit by a bus” after labour.
Gesturing at her daughter, Danielle began: “She’s currently on the boob, Orla Mae, you kept us waiting.
“Not even going to talk about the labour, I’ll do that another day. But she’s here, that’s all that matters.”
Danielle revealed that she had found love with her fiancé Tom in September last year by sharing a photo of them together on Instagram, in which she revealed that they’d actually been friends for a long time.
“Life has a funny way of working out, just when I decided to give up on love my friend of 22 years swept me off my feet,” she wrote.
“You don’t find love it finds you, it’s got a little to do with destiny and fate, and what’s written in the stars.”
