Sophie Kasaei gives birth! Geordie Shore star welcomes ‘miracle’ son with TOWIE’s Jordan Brooks following years of fertility struggles

Sophie Kasaei and Jordan Brooks have welcomed their first child, a baby boy.

The reality star couple took to Instagram to announce the news on Friday, after IVF struggles as well as Jordan’s battle with viral meningitis and encephalitis.

Alongside a sweet snap of their newborn son, they penned: ‘A moment we had dreamed of for so long. We can’t believe he is finally here, healthy and happy.

‘Baby, Brody Jordan Daryll Brook. Born 11/06/26. You are our little miracle who has completed us. Mummy and Daddy love you’. 

In April, Jordan was discharged from hospital after 22 days after being left unable to walk and with scar tissue on his brain following the ‘worst possible’ bout of meningitis. 

But in May he informed fans that a ‘miracle’ has happened amid his recovery with his  liver count  back to a normal level after he came worrying close to having liver failure.

The couple announced they were having a baby boy during an extravagant gender party back in January after an emotional two-year fertility battle as well as suffering a chemical pregnancy in their bid to become parents. 

A chemical pregnancy is a very early pregnancy loss that usually happens just after the embryo implants. 

Last year the couple announced that they’d taken a new step in their journey to becoming parents as they had started a new form of therapy. 

Sophie revealed she had started Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy (LIT), which ‘involves analysing a patient’s immune system and administering appropriate immune therapy’, according to The Fertility And Gynaecology Academy. 

Taking to Instagram, the TV personality penned: ‘After 28 months our fertility journey continues.   

‘Today we are heading to @fertilysis to start our first round of Lit therapy amongst other treatments. Our biggest leap forwards on our journey in what feels like forever.

‘As a team we are taking every day, week and month as it comes. We will not give up. Thank you to every single friend, member of our families and everyone else who continues to reach out with kind words and support it really does mean the world. 

‘To those who are also in the same boat. Keep going. Keep communicating and keep exploring.’

Her update on social media comes after she told how she was overjoyed when she had a positive pregnancy test but when she checked again, ‘the line was gone’.

Earlier this year  Jordan opened up about his recent battle with meningitis during an appearance on Good Morning Britain.

‘Meningitis is inflammation of the membranes that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord,’ according to Meningitis Now, while ‘encephalitis is an uncommon but serious condition in which the brain becomes inflamed,’ the NHS states.
