They already have a two-year-old son, Junior. Jordan has a five-year-old son, Harvey, from a previous relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke.

"Peter Andre and Katie Price are happy to announce the birth of their first daughter," said a statement released on behalf of the couple.

"Both Peter and Katie are absolutely over the moon with the new addition to their family and delighted to have a sister for Harvey and Junior - it is a dream come true.

"Both Katie and the baby are healthy and happy, and will be spending the next few days resting in hospital."

The birth comes a year after Jordan, 29, suffered a miscarriage which left the couple "devastated".

The model was delighted to discover she was expecting a girl this time around.

"I’m very excited. I’ve got my three boys and a little princess," she said recently.

She has denied reports that she plans to name the baby Crystal, the title of her latest novel.


Jordan warned over health - June 27 2007
Heavily-pregnant Jordan has been told to slow down by her doctor amid fears over her health as she nears the due date of her third child.

The 29-year-old apparently cancelled book signings for her novel Crystal last week, after admitting the pregnancy has left her "exhausted", Closer reports.

She said: "I should be enjoying the moments up to when my baby’s born, but my doctor has said I’m exhausted and it’s not good for me. I hate to let people down but I have to think of my health for once."

The glamour model added that she wasn’t really looking forward to the birth.

"I’m really dreading having an epidural when I’m in labour. I have a real needle phobia, so I’m having therapy with a doctor about it."

Poor Jordan, who already has two sons and is expecting a daughter, has suffered a few traumas during her pregnancy.

Hubby Peter Andre is still recovering from meningitis he contracted in April and her eldest son, Harvey, was rushed to hospital earlier this month.

Jordan’s heli-pad tour - June 7 2007
She may be about to give birth any minute - but that hasn’t made Jordan postpone her forthcoming book tour.

The glamour model is busy promoting her new novel, Crystal - a follow-up to her best-seller, Angel, as well as being followed round by cameras for her ITV2 reality show, Katie And Peter: The Next Chapter.

"We’ve got a heli pad sorted in every area that I’m going to just in case I go into labour," she said.

The curvy star was also keen to clear up the rumours about her son Harvey’s latest accident.

"I just want to clear something up - he did not fall into a mirror, me and Pete were at Toys R Us buying their birthday presents, the nanny had him and the mirror fell on my nanny, which is why she’s off as well, and fell on Harvey," she said.

"It just always seems to happen to Harvey when I’m not home and that’s the most frustrating thing."
