Melissa George welcomes first child

Aussie actress Melissa George has welcomed a baby boy!

The former Home and Away actress and her French boyfriend Jean-David Blanc welcomed a son named Raphaël last Thursday in Paris.

“Welcome to the world! Our beautiful son Raphaël Blanc just born at the American hospital of Paris. There are no words to describe the love,” she tweeted today.

The 37-year-old now lives in Paris with Jean-David who she met at a BAFTA after-party in 2012.

The pair have been together for almost two years.

“This baby is very wanted and very much what we’ve been waiting for,” she told OK! magazine in August.

“It’s no secret that I’ve always wanted to be a mother, and every time I had a birthday I would just be a little bit sad. You don’t mind clicking over another number when you’ve got something inside you, growing, that you’ve always dreamed about.”
