She wrote on Instagram : "Best daddy carrying our beautiful baby girl. We are so utterly besotted with you and you are so blinking cute.

A host of White's former teammates flooded the comments section with messages of congratulations.

White was an integral part of England's EURO 2022 winning squad and retired as the Lionesses' all-time leading goalscorer last August, having notched 52 goals in 113 appearances for the national side.
The 33-year-old also enjoyed a glittering club career, having won two WSL titles, three FA Cups and four league cups during her time at Arsenal and Manchester City.
White announced she was pregnant in December and was awarded an MBE in the 2023 New Year Honours for services to association football.
