And Dani’s confessed that while little Santiago is “fresh and clean” – new motherhood has kept her too occupied for a quick wash of her own.

In her post, she can be seen dressed casually, wearing glasses and with her hair swept up in a messy top-knot, planting a kiss on her new baby’s forehead.

Alongside it, she wrote: "Mummy’s little angel💙

“He's all fresh and clean and I still haven’t washed my hair since having him haha.

"Love him so much I wish I could put into words how I feel✨”

Baby Santiago is Dani and Sammy’s first child together.

The couple have been in an on-off relationship starting before Dani entered the Love Island villa.

In April 2019, The Sun revealed the couple had reunited – and the rest is history.

Just yesterday, dad Sammy posted about his infant son on Instagram, with a sweet snap of the newborn sleeping.

“Weighing 7 pound…We are in a complete baby bubble and enjoying every moment, can not believe he is ours, completely in love and so grateful to be his mummy.

“Sending all my love to all the other mommas to be out there in lockdown… the best experience ever will never forget this day✨”

She later announced her unexpected baby name choice – inspired by her family’s Spanish roots – alongside a snap of her baby wearing an expensive Fendi onesie.

Their first family walk was also caught on camera – where it was revealed Dani is using a £300 pram from her MyBabiie buggy range.
