Amber Stevens West becomes a mother


Amber Stevens West has welcomed her first child with husband Andrew J. West.
The 'Happy Together' star confirmed she and her spouse became proud parents to daughter Ava Laverne West on October 7, which is also the newborn tot's mother's birthday.
The couple are "completely obsessed" with their new arrival and are looking forward to watching her grow.
Confirming the news to PEOPLE.com, Amber said: "We feel like we've been waiting our entire lives to meet our daughter, Ava.
"Now that she's here, we're completely obsessed. She's already introduced a new and unique type of love into our lives and we're so excited to see what else she will show us and teach us in the years to come."
Ava was born at 6.03pm at a hospital in Los Angeles, and weighed a healthy 8lbs and 9 ounces.
The little one's first name is inspired by one of her grandparents, whilst Laverne pays homage to both Amber and Andrew's great-grandmothers.
The 32-year-old actress took to Instagram earlier this year to announce that she and Andrew were set to become parents.
Alongside a collage of pictures - which featured Amber's blossoming baby bump, she wrote: "The best is yet to come! #comingthisfall (sic)"
The '22 Jump Street' star had really started to embrace her pregnancy curves as she later took to her Instagram Story to show off her expanding waistline.
She said: "My new look ... So... This is new."
The brunette beauty started dating Andrew after they met while co-starring in 'Greek' - in which she played Ashleigh Howard alongside his Fisher - in 2009.
They then tied the knot in December 2014 in front of friends and family at the Carondelet House, an Italian villa-style venue, in Los Angeles, California.
And, although the couple are relatively coy about their relationship, Amber couldn't resist gushing about her beau on his 30th birthday back in 2014.
She wrote: "After 6 years I still wanna kiss you in dark corners," she wrote on his 30th birthday. "Happy Birthday @andrewjwest #lifepartner. (sic)"
