Brian Dowling and partner Arthur Gourounlian have announced the arrival of their second child.
The couple who welcomed their first child Blake in September 2022, announced the arrival of their daughter, Blue Ama Rose Dowling Gourounlian on Sunday.
Announcing the wonderful news via Instagram, Brian Dowling wrote: "Please be upstanding for the arrival of our beautiful daughter, Blu Amar Rose Dowling Gourounlian. Blu was delivered safely on Sunday, June 23rd at 13:33hr, weighing 6lb 2ozs. Myself & Papa @gourounlian are absolutely besotted & actually can't believe we now have two little beauties to keep us on our toes".
Praising his sister Aoife who acted as surrogate for the second time, Dowling added: "@effidy_dowling_, you are a superstar & we are, as always, forever grateful. You stayed so calm, considering it wasn't exactly the birth plan we had initially hoped for. Baby Blu was adamant to arrive on Sunday, the 23rd of June & nothing or no one was going to stop her".
"Big Sister Blake, you have been activated".
The couple's news was met with a myriad of messages congratulating them, including close friend and Blake's godmother Pippa O'Connor, as well as Dancing With The Stars alum Rosanna Davidson, and Cork music star Lyra.
