For their lavish baby shower, which was held at a Mexican restaurant on Kings Road, guests were served cocktails named Princess Paloma, Miss Margarita and Angel Fresco in honour of her baby girl.

A number of Arabella’s star-studded pals also came to celebrate including Georgia Harrison, Olivia Hawkins and Dancing On Ice star Ferne McCann. 

Arabella and entrepreneur Billy found love after starring on the first All Stars series last year, and announced they were expecting their first child together in December.

The bombshell and Billy went public with their relationship in October. 

The model revealed that she has ‘always wanted to be a mum’ as she discussed finding the one in her boyfriend.

Arabella admitted the couple ‘moved in together straight away’ after meeting through mutual friends.

She was previously linked to Premier League footballer Ruben Dias, Leonardo DiCaprio’s ‘close pal’ Richie Akiva and French rugby player Yoann Huget.

Although Arabella found herself back in the Love Island Villa in January 2024, she once again was unlucky in love… at least until she met Billy.

She continued: ‘It wasn’t a surprise. I’ve always wanted to be a mum. We’ve thought of names, so we’re very excited.’

Adding of her birth plan, Arabella said: ‘I don’t think it’s something any woman is particularly excited about, and from what I hear it’s quite painful, but it’s part of parcel of being a woman.’

‘I think it’s an amazing experience what the human body does, so I’m going to take it in my stride, and knowing that I’ll have a beautiful daughter at the end of labour will all be worth it.’

Elsewhere, Arabella gave an insight into her relationship with Billy and revealed her hopes to get married.

‘I met him through mutual friends, so it was a really nice meeting,’ she explained.

‘We were literally just out for drinks one night, and I met him. At the time I thought, wow – he is an amazing guy, and he turned out to be the one.’

She continued: ‘It’s really nice that’s he’s not in the showbiz world. My parents have met him, and love him, and he ticks every single box – he’s amazing!’

‘We moved in together literally straight away, so we’re just waiting for the baby now. When you know you know!’

'I think it’s an amazing experience what the human body does, I’m going to take it in my stride, and knowing that I’ll have a beautiful daughter at the end of labour will all be worth it,' she said

Now a proud mum of a baby girl, Arabella previously admitted if she was told she was having a baby a year ago she ‘would have laughed in your face’. 

Speaking to The Mirror during her lavish baby shower in Chelsea this weekend, she said: ‘I loved how me and Billy met, it was organic. 

‘It’s hard to do that in this day and age. He’s out of this world. And I love that. It’s refreshing.’

Billy, who tries to keep out of the spotlight, added: ‘I can’t wait to be a girl dad. It’s life changing. It’s my own little family. Arabella’s amazing. She’s got a heart of gold.’

Billy explained their little girl is ‘extra special’ and was ‘meant to be’ because of Arabella’s previous struggles with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).

She added: ‘When I found out I was pregnant it was magical. With my PCOS I don’t know if I’ll be able to have more children so she’s special.’

Arabella added that timing was everything for the couple and she feels so ‘lucky’ to have found the one. 

The model said: ‘I’ve learned to trust the timing of your life because life will happen how it’s supposed to happen. I can’t believe that a year and three months ago I was in the Love Island villa. I feel so lucky to have found my forever partner.’
