Geelong star Rhys Stanley and wife Kirsten have welcomed their first daughter together.

Taking to Instagram this afternoon to share the news with her nearly 27,000 following, socialite Kirsten Stanley— who hails from Quairading— shared the news that her second child had arrived safely.

Sloane Elizabeth Stanley was born on June 10 weighing 3.16kgs.

“Our hearts are bursting with love,” Stanley wrote.

Fellow Perth socialites the Barbagallo’s and Mia Theodoropoulos left their well wishes with the family.

“Congrats you guys!! so much love for your amazing little fam,” Sophia Barbagallo wrote.

Stanley visited WA over the Christmas break to help her parents, who farm in Quairading, with harvest.

“I love Victoria, but WA still holds my heart for the best beaches in Australia,” she told the West Australian at the time.

“(Rhys) drives the header through his off-season and helps out around the farm (while) I’m pretty much flat out baking to feed the hungry boys.”

But despite her Christmas visit, the former Miss Universe WA finalist has been unable to share much of her pregnancy with her parents, thanks to the COVID-19 related border measures.

“It’s so hard without being able to see family,” Stanley said.

“Especially with baby number two coming along, the plan was for my parents to come over and help with Jagger whist I was in hospital with Rhys and the newborn.”

The pair were married last New Year’s in Margaret River.
