Laura Byrne and Matty ‘J’ Johnson have welcomed their third child together, a daughter.
The former Bachelor star, 39, and her husband, 38, announced the news in a sweet Instagram post after previously revealing their newborn’s name was Poppy.
Poppy was born late Saturday.
‘Third time really is a charm. Our sweet little Poppy girl is here and we are all utterly obsessed with every inch of you,’ the pair announced.
‘Poppy Pearl Johnson welcome to the world precious one.’
In April, Laura revealed the gender of her third child with Matty, confirming she was expecting another daughter.
She made the exciting announcement, cutting into a gender reveal cake live on her KIIS FM The Pick Up radio show, just hours after announcing her pregnancy.
‘It’s a girl,’ Laura squealed as she removed a slice of white sponge that contained layers of pink icing.
‘Oh my god, you’re having a third little baby girl!’ co-host Brittany Hockley said in disbelief, before adding: ‘Congratulations.’

‘Am I capable of producing boys?’ replied husband Matty, before adding, ‘Let’s go again. Let’s go for a fourth.’
‘We’re so lucky to have three little girls – and three little sisters, it’s going to be amazing,’ added Laura, before Matty admitted he ‘loves being a girl dad’.
Laura announced her pregnancy news on her podcast, Life Uncut, which she co-hosts with fellow reality star Brittany Hockley.
‘It turns out, we’re having baby number three!’ she declared.
‘I’m pregnant, guys!’
‘It is a miracle. We had a really small window. I have known for a very long time. I found out very early on in this pregnancy, not because I had any symptoms but because my friend made a comment that made me do a pregnancy test,’ she explained.
Laura recalled that she took a pregnancy test while Matty was filming I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in South Africa, but did not tell him the news until she was two and a half months pregnant.
‘I wasn’t able to tell Matt for ages. The whole time he was in the jungle, I wasn’t able to tell him and then it was really tricky because I didn’t want to tell him when it was the finale,’ she explained.

‘I didn’t want to tell him as soon as the show, because I don’t know if you guys remember, but the show wasn’t filmed live this year, so we did the finale over there.’
Matt also made an announcement on his Two Doting Dads podcast, telling listeners: ‘[It’s] an October baby. We were trying before I went into the jungle.
‘The plan was, we said this year 2025, if we were going to have a third, this will be the year that it happens.’
The couple share daughters Marlie-Mae, whom they welcomed in 2019, and Lola, who was born in 2021.
Laura appeared on The Bachelor Australia in 2017 and met her now-husband, and father to her two children, Matty.
