Christie wore a long white dress while Joel looked stylish in a white knit shirt and matching coloured pants.

Their newborn son looked as cute as a button in black pants, a white buttoned shirt and suspenders.

Christie also shared a family video and wrote: ‘Mrs Price lol BUT so glad I did this as it’s taken the pressure of me to plan our wedding sooner, so I can just enjoy being a mummy and having our babies for a bit.’ 

Christie and Joel announced the arrival of their son in May.

The influencer shared a gallery of maternity content to social media, confirming she had given birth to a healthy baby boy.

One heartwarming clip showed her newborn lying peacefully on her chest as they rested in the hospital’s maternity ward.

Christie looked focused in the sweet footage as she tenderly cradled her adorable bub.

She captioned the footage with some heartfelt words: ‘Only place he will sleep. I’m so in love. I had a fully unmedicated birth’.

‘Birth story is wild and keen to share. But for now I’m just gonna stare at him all night and be in my newborn bubble.’

The announcement came one year after Price was served with a restraining order and charged with domestic violence-related common assault.

Price, 38, was served an interim Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) by NSW Police on behalf of Christie in April 2024. He pleaded not guilty to the assault charge.

Daily Mail Australia understands the matter was heard in court on August 6.

In 2022, Swadling filed for bankruptcy after racking up a pile of debt she can’t pay back.

Documents leaked online in February, 2023 showed the social media star was in financial strife, even though she projects a lavish lifestyle on social media.

It was revealed she was bankrupt after an anonymous user on the Tattle Life forums paid $15 to obtain the paperwork on her bankruptcy filing.

The Instagram model listed her job as an ‘advertising and marketing professional’ in the publicly available document filed on December 29, 2022.
