She set tongues wagging last month with footage of her partaking in high-intensity kick-boxing routines and gym workouts, and we are very glad to report that fitness fanatic Chontel Duncan has given birth to her first child.
The Australian took to her social media channels to share the big news, announcing that she and her husband welcomed a son, Jeremiah Thomas, last Friday.
Posting a photo of her little one at just one day old, Chontel wrote: “Healthy, happy baby boy. Absolutely nothing medically wrong with Bubba, he is extremely alert and very strong, shocking the staff here with his arms and neck strength.”
She added that her own recovery has been “smooth with no complications”.
This will come as welcome news to Chontel’s 412K-strong Instagram following, particularly those who criticised her workout photos and footage, suggesting that she may have been doing harm to her unborn child.
While footage of Chontel kick-boxing during an energetic session proved divisive among our readers, it was a photo of the new mum posing side-by-side with her friend, pointing out the major differences between their respective bumps, which really set tongues wagging.
We are delighted to hear Chontel’s news, and we’re looking forward to her upcoming posts which will no doubt prove to be a major talking point among the social media community!
