Julie Goodwin ‘I LOVE BEING A GRANDMA!'

After her well-publicised mental health battle, the star is finding much joy in her family’s newest addition

- 

MasterChef star Julie Goodwin can now add doting grandmother to her already impressive resume, after the birth of baby Delilah Marlene in January.

“Oh my god – it’s beautiful,” the 51-year-old star tells Woman’s Day of bonding with her nine-month-old granddaughter, the child of her middle son, Tom. “And we have been so lucky. During this last lockdown we have all been living in the same house. It’s just been divine to wake up for her every day. They’re moving out in a few weeks and I’m going to miss them.”

The doting star admits she can’t get enough of the latest addition to her family, which also includes husband of 26 years Michael and her other sons, Joe and Paddy.

“I don’t think you can spoil a little baby, if you’re talking about time and attention and singing songs and loving them and kissing them all over the face,” she says happily.

And Julie confesses it’s a novelty having a girl after three boys of her own.
