Baby joy for model Nell

Model Nell McAndrew has given birth to a boy.

The baby, called Devon, arrived in the early hours of this morning, a week early, weighing 7lb 8oz.

Nell’s property developer husband, Paul Hardcastle, and mother, Nancy, were present for the birth at St James’s Hospital, Leeds.

“Nell and Paul are unbelievably happy,” a spokeswoman for the model said.

“The birth was natural and totally drug-free.

“They didn’t choose Devon because he was conceived there, Posh and Becks-style. They just really liked the name, simple as that.”
