Charlotte, Saint and… Elsie Otter?! 2015 was a celebrity baby boom

by

Nothing sets our ovaries going like an adorable celebrity baby, and 2015 did not disappoint.

From a new member of the Royal family (though we reckon Prince George still wins in the adorableness stakes) to Kim and Kanye's long-awaited second child, the last twelve months have been jampacked with mini-me celeb babies.

Here are some of the new arrivals that had us beaming over the last year…

Georgia Salpa and Joe Penna: Twin boys
Irish model Georgia Salpa tied the knot over the summer, and revealed in mid-December that she and her new husband were the proud parents of twin boys. It's believed the couple used a surrogate based in the US. No photos of the two little lads yet – though we have heard a few cute cries in the background on her Snapchat videos…

 

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West: Saint West
After initially hinting that Kim was due around Christmas Day, this superstar reality couple ended up welcoming their second child prematurely on December 5. We bet it was a very happy Christmas indeed in the Kardashian-Jenner-West household.

 

Fearne Cotton and Jesse Wood: Honey Krissy Wood
BBC presenter Fearne welcomed her second child, a sister for her two-year-old son Rex, in September of this year. We've yet to see a proper photo, but Fearne has been sharing a few peeks at her adorable newborn – like this one of the tot sleeping with her hands to her face:

 

Frankie Sandford-Bridge and Wayne Bridge: Carter Bridge
If there was any doubt that little Carter wouldn't be a total cutie, one look at his big brother Parker should set the record straight. Carter made his media debut in an OK! spread just one month after his birth back in August.

 

Lucy Liu: Rockwell Lloyd Liu, August
Actress Lucy Liu welcomed her first child via gestational surrogate in late summer, and couldn't resist showing him off via Twitter with this oh-so-adorable snap.

 

Zooey Deschanel and Jacob Pechenik: Elsie Otter Pechenik
The notoriously private Zooey revealed all at once that she was married AND had become a new mum, after welcoming daughter Elsie with her husband in August 2015. The name is cute, but we bet she'll thank her lucky stars she wasn't saddled with a double-barrel surname… Deschanel-Pechenik is a bit of a mouthful. 

 

Kian Egan and Jodi Albert: Zeke Egan
Zeke's birth in May was a bittersweet day for model and singer Jodi, as he coincidentally shares a birthday with her late mum Eileen. Jodi sadly lost her mum to cancer in February 2015.

 

Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter: Christopher Cumberbatch
We reckon Benedict would rather die than name his child Saint, Apple or anything remotely 'trendy.' Instead the actor opted for Christopher, after welcoming the little boy in June, just four months after he and Sophie tied the knot.

 

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge: Princess Charlotte of Cambridge
Unless you were living under a rock for the months of April and May, you'll know full well that the Royal Family welcomed a new member this year, in the form of little Charlotte. And a new Christmas family snap shows that the new Princess is turning out to be a brunette like her gorgeous mum…

 

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake: Silas Timberlake
Justin and Jessica rarely share glimpses of their personal lives on social media, but we were lucky enough to get a peek at little Silas a couple of times this year via social media. HOW cute is the teeny-tiny fella?

 

Una and Ben Foden: Tadhg John Foden
Tipperary's cutest GAA supporter has to be little Tadhg, the new son of Irish singer Una Foden. Along with Una and Ben's three-year-old daughter Aoife Belle, this family of four is just totally picture perfect.

 

Shakira and Gerard Piqué: Sasha Piqué
"I have Daddy's feet, it looks like I've been playing football my whole life,” Shakira wrote on Twitter of her newborn son, a little brother for Milan. Sasha was born by C-section in January, just 24 hours after his dad played a blinder for Barcelona FC.

 

Jennifer Maguire and Lau Zampareli: Florence Myra Zampareli
RTÉ's most hilarious star Jennifer welcomed the adorable Florence at the beginning of 2015, and said recently that the whole experience of motherhood has been "magical." D'aaaw.
