Rebecca Ferguson, the 28-year-old singer from Liverpool who was pipped to the post on X Factor in 2010 by winner Matt Cardle, has gone into labour with her third child. Rebecca, a former flame of One Direction's Zayn Malik, has taken to Twitter while awaiting the arrival of her little girl, a second daughter for the stunning singer.

Tweeting: “Slow labour, feeling pretty blue in the hospital. Everything is healthy and fine. Just need to rest and stay patient. My angel will come soon xxx” The organised mum-to-be revealed that the new arrival's name has already been chosen by posting a photo of tiny shoes with the name Arabella stitched into them.

Rebecca already has a daughter named Lillie-May and a son, Karl named after his father, from a previous relationship and is overjoyed to be welcoming a new baby into her life, saying: “Children are such a blessing and I'm grateful to God for my new little gift.” Rebecca announced via Twitter last April that Lillie-May and Karl would be expecting a younger sibling later this year. We can't wait to hear that Arabella has arrived safe and sound!
