    Iskra Lawrence has given birth to her second child

    The 33-year-old model and her partner Philip Payne welcomed a baby girl, a sister for four-year-old Alpha, into the world on Sunday (06.10.24) morning and the blonde beauty revealed things couldn't have gone more smoothly with the home birth


    Sharing a series of photos by photographer Alina Leksi, she wrote on Instagram: " she's here P.P

    "our daughter joined us at 3.56am here at home. 8 lbs 14 oz of preciousness, our hearts are exploding with gratitude.

    "thank you my rock for being by my side @philipapayne can't believe we finally have our daughter and a sister for big brother.

    "Thank you to my birth team @anyadjumabaev @emmyrobbindoula for giving me the redemption birth of my dreams (I filmed my whole labour and will share soon). (sic)"

    Noting "it takes a village" to raise a child, Iskra also thanked her parents for their support and fans for their kind messages.

    She wrote: "My parents for being here to help it means so much.

    "and finally thank you @alina.leksi for capturing these beautiful images I'll treasure forever.

    "It takes a village.. and thank YOU all for your love and support I can't wait for you to get to know our little angel girl.(sic)"

    In April, Iskra used the happy news of her pregnancy to announce she would be giving away $20,000 to two Instagram followers struggling with infertility to help them start a family.

    In her post on Instagram, Iskra wrote: "Four years later and we are finally going to be a family of 4.

    "This announcement is extra special because once again I'm partnering with @firstresponsepregnancy and I'll be giving away all $20k to two of YOU to support you on your fertility journey."

    Iskra previously held a giveaway to donate $10,000 to two women who were both struggling to start families of their own - and she revealed they have both since become moms.

    She added: "Four years ago I gave away $10k each to Sara and Skye during my first pregnancy and it's hard not to cry writing this but both now have their rainbow babies and it's truly been my greatest honour being part of their journeys and I can't wait to do this again.
