Captioned simply, “I love him so much”, Colleen posted the picture on Twitter and Instagram. She uploaded it to the latter social media platform eight hours ago and already it has over one million likes.

Colleen announced she was in labour with a funny picture of the star in a hospital gown, posing nonchalantly with her phone and an iced Starbucks drink. She captioned the tweet “here we go”.

The 32-year-old’s fans were ecstatic. Within an hour, her post had over 4,500 retweets and nearly 30,000 likes. The comments were filled with excited followers eager to see their favourite creator reach this milestone.

She later announced the new arrival with the tweet, “he’s perfect”. This is Colleen’s first child, whom she has had with fiance, Erik Stocklin. She has promised her subscribers a vlog of the birth but asked people to be patient because she needs to take a “few days to stare” at her “adorable son” – of course, a fair request!
