Rebecca Adlington spotted for the first time since giving birth as she takes baby Albie for a walk in Cheshire
REBECCA Adlington has been seen for the first time since giving birth to her son Albie.
The 32-year-old Olympian enjoyed an afternoon stroll with her second child and her boyfriend Andrew Parsons, who scooted alongside her.
Wrapped up warm, the sports star cradled the baby, who was born just two weeks ago, in a carrier beneath her coat.
The new mum wore her hair in two braids and was accompanied by her two dogs.
Rebecca is also mum to Summer, five, who she shares with ex husband Harry Needs.
She opened up about how parenthood was different this time round, telling magazine: “I am a bit more at ease in general. When I had Summer it completely transformed me as a person and brought that maternal side out in me.”
The star did however worry how she would bond with the baby, saying: “I was worried I wouldn't love him as much as I did Summer, but as soon as he was born, I loved him so much. It has just been so lovely.”
And she revealed that Summer is loving being a big sister: “She is just besotted by him. It's so cute. I always knew she was going to be good with Albie; she is very loving and has got a natural maternal instinct about her. She gives him a kiss and always says goodbye to him before she goes to school.”
