    Emma Roberts has shared the first photo of her baby son

    The 'American Horror Story' actress and her boyfriend Garrett Hedlund welcomed baby Rhodes into the world last month and she's now taken to Instagram to celebrate her "bright light" and revealed the tot's middle name is Robert


    Sharing a photo of herself dressed in orange and cradling the tot as they sat on a bench outside, she wrote on Instagram: "Thank you 2020 for getting one thing right sun emoji] Our bright light Rhodes Robert Hedlund [heart emoji] (sic)"

    Emma's famous friends were quick to congratulate her on her new arrival.

    Ashley Benson wrote: "I love you em. Sooo happy for you (sic)"

    Reese Witherspoon posted: "Oh baby!! Congrats!!(sic)"

    Billie Lourd, Taylor Lautner, Helena Christensen, and Lily Aldridge all added heart emojis, while Ashley Tisdale joked: "I just liked it twice!!! [heart emojis] Congrats beautiful (sic)"

    The 29-year-old star previously admitted she was finding it "a wild experience" being pregnant in lockdown.

    She said: "That’s become such a loaded question in 2020. Long story short: I am hungry and tired. Food and sleep do not abide by the normal laws when you’re pregnant. But I’m healthy, which is the thing I’m most grateful for. To see my body change inside and out so drastically has been a wild experience. Surprising and beautiful."

    And the ‘Scream Queens’ actress felt “grateful” she’s been able to stay at home and not work, because it allowed her to “be present” with herself.

    She said: "It's been really an interesting time in the world to be pregnant right now. It’s definitely caused a lot of introspection, but I think it's been amazing to really sit with myself and really turn inward in a way I never have before and be still. That's been really nice, and I feel really grateful to have gotten to do that. To not just be running from one appointment to the next or one job to the next. I’ve really had to be present with myself, and that's been - some days you wanna crawl out of your skin, but other days you feel really good and really grateful."
