Joss Stone gives birth to a baby boy a year after heartbreaking miscarriage

JOSS Stone has revealed she's given birth to a baby boy - a year after suffering a devastating miscarriage.

The singer, 35, announced her happy news on Instagram tonight, introducing her followers to her new arrival, who was born on October 20.

She beamed as she held the yet to be named tot while sitting beside daughter Violet, one, and boyfriend Cody DaLuz.

Back in August the Grammy-winning star admitted she was struggling to decide on a name and asked fans for help.

She said: "Has anyone any name suggestions because I am cutting it a little fine. 

"I have some ideas, but I haven't decided and I don't think I am going to decide until I see him."

Joss and Cody had first child Violet in January last year.

In April, Joss revealed she was pregnant again in a tearful video.

In it, the Masked Singer champ also said she had suffered a miscarriage just months before.

She said: "Last year, in October, I lost a baby.

"It was really horrible, because it was my baby. And I know that a lot of women go through that. It was hard, just not very nice."

She added: "It's sh**ty, it's a horrible, horrible thing. And it's not something that you can get over. It's something that you have to live with.

"[The doctor] said to me: 'Joss, just come back in Spring next year and we'll do a 'well woman' check and make sure you're all good and go from there.'

"So I said: 'OK doc, I will see you when the daffodils bloom' and this is what happened..."

Joss then shared a clip of herself walking through daffodils and holding up a positive pregnancy test. 

She added: "So, that's the beautiful part of the story, is that there are rainbows after storms, and it's just lovely and I'm very excited. I can't wait to meet my baby.

"I hope and pray that everything's OK. And I'm just, I'm very excited to announce it - but I didn't want to not acknowledge my baby before."

Getting out two ultrasound scans in the video, filmed in a car, she said: "This is the one before. Look how tiny he was. Then this is our baby now, a bit bigger.

"I didn't want to do a scan early because I felt like it had jinxed it because I am superstitious and stupid."

She added: "Of course a scan will not change anything but we went for a later scan. So I'm excited. Oh life, doesn't it give us all sorts of different things to deal with?

"And we can, we can deal with the good bits and the bad bits. Loveliness will come, it will come. We just have to keep hoping and walking forward.

"Any prayers and good thoughts you can send out there are welcome in this family."
