Mrs Hinch gives birth to third baby and confirms adorable retro name
Mrs Hinch, aka Sophie Hinchcliffe, has announced the birth of her third baby and their adorable name.
The social media star, 35, shared that she was expecting her third child with husband Jamie in November 2024, with the couple already sharing songs Ronnie, five, and Lennie, three.
In a post shared on Instagram, Sophie revealed that she’s welcomed another baby boy and named him Vinnie Alan Barker Hinchcliffe, sharing a namesake with Sophie’s father Alan who died last year.
She uploaded emotional snaps of her and Jamie cradling the newborn moments after his birth, as well as pictures of Vinnie snuggled up next to a personalised teddy bear paying tribute to Sophie’s father.
‘Welcome to the world 🤍 Vinnie Alan Barker Hinchliffe,’ Sophie wrote in the caption.
‘Born 18th February at 12:21pm , 6lb7oz. Our beautiful little heart healer entered the world In the month we needed him most, February.
‘February is my Dads birthday month 🪽 my birthday month 🩷 … And now, it’s our Vinnies 💙
‘The signs, the comfort, the joy, you really are just everything we have needed and more Vinnie. Now it’s time to meet your beautiful big brothers, and start the next chapter in our Hinch story.’
She went on to say she loved her husband Jame ‘beyond words.’
Sophie also shared a video of Jamie carrying the youngster in a car seat as they exited the hospital on her Instagram Stories, which Jamie posted himself with the message: ‘Let’s do this indeed. So so proud of you @mrshinchhome.’
The couple’s famous friends were quick to congratulate the pair on their new arrival, with Stacey Solomon commenting: ‘Welcome to the world little one ❤️❤️.’
Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt wrote: ‘Huge congratulations to you all. Such a beautiful name for a beautiful little boy ❤️.’
Social media star Neha Gandesha pointed out: ‘Congrats to all of you! He looks so much like Lennie. So much love to you ❤️.’

Sophie thanked fans and loved ones alike for their congratulations on her page with an adorable picture of Vinnie swaddled in a muslin blanket.
‘Goodnight everyone. Thanks for so many kind wonderful messages,’ she wrote.
‘Baby Vinnie Alan is a dream.’
Sophie took a step back from social media last year after announcing the death of her father, sharing with her fans her experience with grief.
Posting a picture of herself on the beach with her sons, the cleaning influencer wrote: ‘I’d be lying if I said I was okay… in fact, I feel broken.
She continued to say she is navigating an ‘extreme mix of emotions’ that she is struggling to make sense of and feels as though she has entered a ‘new part of my world’ where her grief sits heavy.
Sophie told her followers: ‘I feel like my Dad taught me everything I needed to know, except how to live without him.’
She then thanked those who had reached out for their ‘overwhelming amount of love and support’.
‘I see you and I’m so so grateful’, she said. ‘Thank you for being patient with me while I try to find my feet again alongside my family, who I am SO incredibly proud of and who I love with my whole heart.’
In the caption of the post, she added, ‘I wanted to come on here and say thank you so much for all the overwhelming love and support.
‘I may not be able to get back to you all right now, but I see you and I am so grateful.’
