Inside Taylor Ward’s glam baby shower as she reveals she and Riyad Mahrez are having a girl

TAYLOR Ward beamed as she was surrounded by love, affection and an array of balloons at her baby shower.

The model, 24, and footballer husband, Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez, 31, revealed they were expecting their first child with a cute post on Instagram in February.

Last week, they threw a lavish gender reveal party where they told followers they are expecting a baby girl.

And the celebrations keep coming for the couple, who were treated to a chic baby shower for their unborn baby.

Mum-to-be Taylor looked amazing in a baby pink bodycon dress, which showed off her growing baby bump.

Proving she's set to be a stylish mama, she threw a matching jacket over her shoulders and accessorised with high heels.

Wearing her blonde hair in loose waves, she finished her look with hoop earrings.

Taylor beamed as she stood by TV star Charlotte Dawson and her son Noah, with the trio surrounded by a series of multi-coloured balloons.

Delicate pastel floral displays also filled the venue as Taylor celebrated.

A plaque on entry was adorned with gold hot air balloons and read: "Welcome to Taylor and Riyad's baby shower."

The decor chimed with hot air balloon sculptures that had been installed around the venue.

Taylor could be seen smiling as she cuddled up with sister Darby, who wore a hot pink dress, and her daughter Skye, aged one.

Her proud mum, Real Housewives of Cheshire star Dawn, had made the trip over from her home in Dubai to celebrate.

She could be seen sat at a huge dining table covered in white table cloth, wearing a cute pink tweed jacket.

At the pair's gender reveal earlier this month, images showed the couple preparing to pop a huge black balloon with "oh baby" written across it, while surrounded by pink and blue balloons.

Shortly afterwards Taylor and Riyad are showed in pink confetti.

Sharing the sweet video, Taylor wrote: "baby GIRL.. we can't wait to meet you 💕."

Meanwhile, for their big baby reveal, Taylor posted a picture of them together on a luxury break in the Maldives while holding a string of baby scan pictures.

Both dressed in white, Riyad was shown with a protective hand on her baby bump.

It came after The Sun revealed that the pair had secretly married under Islamic law.
