She later shared a photo of her holding her baby’s hand and wrote: “So lucky to be your mum. My beautiful baby girl Lila Grey. Perfect.”

Lilly revealed that she had giving birth after posting a photo of Lee, who is the son of Kinahan crime boss Liam Byrne, carrying his daughter home from hospital.

Other photos show former Liverpool captain Steven holding his first grandchild with the caption “little angel”. Steven previously revealed that he was excitedly awaiting the birth of his first grandchild in July and that his phone screensaver was a photo of the baby’s ultrasound.

Lilly and Lee have been inundated with messages of congratulations from well wishers on social media, including from Claudine Keane, the wife of former Irish football star Robbie Keane.

Lilly also shared a message of congratulations from Lee’s close friend Nathan Biggie Little who has been previously described in the High Court as being a ‘low-level’ member of the Byrne Organised Crime Group.

He wrote: “Congratulations to my bro and Lilly on the birth of there baby.” The message was accompanied by a loveheart emoji.

In January, Lilly (21) revealed she was expecting a baby with Lee (25) who she has been in a relationship with for over three years.

The happy news came around the same time that Lee’s father Liam was released from jail in the UK.

He had been sentenced to five years behind bars at the Old Bailey in London after pleading guilty to conspiracy charges related to a gun plot.

He had been extradited to the UK in 2023 after his dramatic arrest in Spain.

Lee Byrne, Lilly Gerrard Steven Gerrard have no involvement in any crime.
