Amanda Holden has unveiled the first picture of her newborn baby Hollie.
The Britain's Got Talent judge welcomed her second child with husband Chris Hughes on January 23. However, she was later rushed to intensive care after she began bleeding heavily, undergoing a number of blood transfusions.

Sources say that Holden released the image - showing herself and Hughes with their daughters Hollie and 6-year-old Alexa - after being "blown away" by support from fans.
"Amanda wanted to release a happy picture to say, 'Don't worry, I'm back, I'm well again'," a friend told The Sun.
"She's blown away by all the love and warm wishes from people. She had major complications with the birth and needed several transfusions. But she's a fighter and an old pro. She wanted to draw a line under those difficult days and move on."
On the bond between the family, friends told The Mirror: "She is delighted with the way Lexi and Hollie have bonded and the family have been enjoying some quality time with just the four of them.
"Amanda is telling everyone she has never been happier. She knows she is lucky to be alive and because of that she is enjoying every moment with Hollie even more. They had a few very tough days in hospital, but now she just can't stop smiling. She and Chris are besotted with their girls."
Holden is believed to be rejoining the Britain's Got Talent panel at auditions in Edinburgh on February 11, apparently taking baby Hollie with her.
Carmen Electra is to cover for Holden at try-outs in London starting today (February 6).
