Following the birth of her baby last week, Thorp took to Instagram to announce her arrival.
"We are delighted to say that we recently welcomed our beautiful baby daughter into the world," she wrote.
"Everything they say about birth being a rollercoaster of emotions is true," she continued, adding: "We're shattered and smitten and everything in between."
She also shared an important message concerning the current crisis in Gaza, writing, "It doesn't feel right to share our news on here without also acknowledging how fortunate we are that our baby is safe," and adding a link for people to donate to the Gaza appeal.
