Billy and Alexis tied the knot back in July 2015, just one month before they welcomed their first child Della Rose.

The couple “surprised guests at their annual July 4th party by exchanging vows in front of their family and close friends,”a spokeswoman said at the time.

In October 2015, the couple celebrated Della’s christening in Roslyn, New York.

Speaking to the Belfast Telegraph, Billy gushed about his two-year-old saying: "She sleeps through the night. I hope the next one will.”

When asked if Della is into Peppa Pig and PAW Patrol, Alexis said: “Not really. She is out all day long. So, she is not really watching a lot of TV. I’m sure she will soon enough!”

In 2015, when Della Rose was born Alexis posted a sweet picture on her Instagram account with the caption: 'Della Rose Joel. Thank you for all the love! She's absolutely perfect!

 Billy is also father to Alexa Ray from his previous relationship with Christie Brinkley, 63
