Paloma Faith Announces Birth of Third Child with Adorable First Photo
Singer Paloma Faith has joyfully announced the birth of her third child, sharing an adorable first picture of her newborn on social media. The 44-year-old musician, known for hits like "Only Love Can Hurt Like This," revealed the happy news to her fans, prompting an outpouring of congratulations from celebrity friends and followers alike.
Pregnancy Journey and Relationship Updates
Paloma Faith had been keeping fans updated throughout her pregnancy, first announcing the exciting news in October 2025. At the time, she humorously told followers that "mother is mothering (again)," as she and her partner Stevie Thomas anticipated their first child together. The child marks her first with Thomas, following her split from Leyman Lahcine in 2022.
The couple made their relationship public last year, stepping out together in March 2025 after Thomas, the director of a music venue in Birmingham, joined her at Sony's BRIT Awards afterparty at Nobu Portman Square. Faith's pregnancy journey included creative displays, such as in February 2026 when she revealed her baby bump as a "canvas" with "Happy Valentine's Day" painted across it, while wearing a crop top with a bold message.
Witty Critique of Gender Reveal Culture
In a recent social media video, Paloma Faith showcased her quick wit by humorously hitting out at gender reveal announcements. Posing with blue and pink balloons, she comically questioned whether people "even give a s**t anymore?" as both balloons deflated. She added, "Oh, come on, does it really matter? It's 2026 - do we even give a s**t about gender anymore? You bloody transphobic, homophobic p****s! It'll be whatever it wants to be when it's old enough to decide its own identity for God's sake!"
This stance aligns with her past views on gender disclosure. In 2018, she refused to reveal the gender of her eldest child, then 13 months old, until they were three years old. Speaking on Good Morning Britain, she explained, "I refer to my child as 'they' in public. In private I refer to them as their gender. I don't believe that celebrity culture is healthy for a child."
Motherhood and Personal Reflections
Paloma Faith has previously shared how becoming a mother has profoundly changed her outlook on life. She said, "When you become a parent, everything makes you look outward, and makes you think, what do I want to teach. My heart sings when I see little boys pushing buggies because that means they’re learning about being caring."
With this new addition, Faith continues to balance her career and family life, embracing motherhood with her signature humor and thoughtful perspectives. The birth of her third child adds to her family, which includes her nine-year-old child, as she navigates the joys and challenges of parenting in the public eye.
