"Starting a family and moving into this exciting phase of our lives is a blessing for which we are incredibly grateful. We eagerly await the arrival of our little girl!"

Katherine and Andrew married last September and she admitted shortly afterwards she "couldn't wait" to start a family with the American director.

She said: "I can't wait to have kids. I can't wait for us to become a family if and when - God willing - that happens."

The 36-year-old beauty - who previously dated George Clooney for two years until 2011 - welcomed her first child into the world with her husband Brian Perri yesterday in Los Angeles and has named her Skyler Eva.

The Italian actress took to her Instagram account to announced the news as she shared a photograph of her beau planting a tender kiss on their new bundle of joy.

She accompanied the sweet snap with the caption: "My life is full of love because of you. La mia vita e' piena di amore grazie a voi. Benvenuta al mondo Skyler Eva ! Welcome into the world our lil Skyler Eva 29 - 9 - 2015 (sic)."

Elisabetta announced via a video clip earlier this year she and her husband were expecting their first child after she tragically suffered a miscarriage in June 2014.

Donning a false pregnancy stomach, she said: "I am so happy to share this moment with all of you. Last year you were so cute and you gave me a lot of love. Thanks.

"Now I don't know how to say it. I'm expecting a baby girl! I hope that everything will be fine. Thanks for everything. Thanks for being always so close."
