Arabella Chi, known to many from her time on Love Island, has just stepped into a wonderful new chapter of her life — becoming a mum.
The 34-year-old reality TV favourite recently announced the arrival of her baby girl with boyfriend Billy Henty, sharing the happy news on Instagram to the delight of her fans.
Baby Gigi Harper Henty Arrives and Steals Hearts
On Friday, Arabella posted a sweet black-and-white photo of her newborn daughter, proudly revealing her name and weight.
She captioned the photo: “Our worlds are complete. Gigi Harper Henty. 20/05/2025 6.2 lbs.”
Fans had been eagerly waiting for this announcement after noticing Arabella’s social media had gone quiet over the past week — a sure sign something exciting was happening.
A Star-Studded Celebration to Welcome Baby Gigi
Before the birth, Arabella and Billy hosted a lavish baby shower at a Mexican restaurant on Kings Road.
The event was full of fun and flair, with guests enjoying cocktails creatively named Princess Paloma, Miss Margarita, and Angel Fresco, all in honour of their baby girl.
Close friends from the entertainment world, including Georgia Harrison, Olivia Hawkins, and Dancing on Ice star Ferne McCann, came to celebrate this special occasion.
Love Blossomed on Love Island All Stars for Arabella and Billy
Arabella and businessman Billy Henty found love after starring together on the Love Island All Stars series last year.
They went public with their relationship in October and announced they were expecting their first child in December.
Arabella has openly spoken about her desire to become a mum and described how quickly their relationship progressed.
Moving In Together and Building a Life Fast
Arabella shared that the couple moved in together almost immediately after meeting through mutual friends. She admitted, “When you know, you know.”
Despite her high-profile past relationships with figures like Premier League footballer Ruben Dias and French rugby player Yoann Huget, Arabella says finding Billy was different — and perfect.
Looking Back on the Journey to Motherhood
In a heartfelt interview, Arabella reflected on her pregnancy and upcoming motherhood.
“I’m so happy, and she’s such a blessing.
It wasn’t a surprise because I’ve always wanted to be a mum,” she said.
She also spoke candidly about childbirth, acknowledging that it might be painful but expressing awe at the strength of the female body and excitement to meet her daughter.
Billy’s Role and Their Special Bond
Billy, who prefers to stay out of the limelight, shared his excitement about becoming a dad.
“It’s life changing. It’s my own little family,” he said.
He also highlighted how special their daughter is, especially given Arabella’s previous struggles with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), which made the pregnancy even more precious for them both.
Embracing Life’s Timing and Feeling Grateful
Arabella feels lucky that everything happened at the right moment.
Reflecting on her time in the Love Island villa just over a year ago, she said, “I’ve learned to trust the timing of your life because life will happen how it’s supposed to happen.
I can’t believe that a year and three months ago I was on Love Island. Now, I’ve found my forever partner.”
