Pregnant Arabella Chi reveals she has chosen unique name for baby daughter - suong

   

Arabella Chi has revealed that she and boyfriend Billy Henty have settled on a name for their baby girl, who is due to be born in May. Speaking to Mirror during her lavish baby shower this weekend, the former Love Island star explained that she has chosen a 'unique' moniker.

“I was convinced it was a boy so we had the boy's name sorted. Billy chose that. When it was a girl, I had a name but Billy said ‘I think we need to rethink it’. I like really unique names, he likes more traditional names. We began talking about it and we found one we both loved," she explained. While she's not going to share the name publicly yet, Arabella gushed, “It’s so nice to be able to call her by her name, not just ‘it’.”

Arabella, who appeared on Love Island in 2019 and again on the show last year for it's All Stars spin-off, met her boyfriend Billy in 2024 shortly after the TV stint, and now can't wait to become a family unit. "I can’t believe that a year and three months ago I was in the Love Island villa. I feel so lucky to have found my forever partner," she said.

The star added: "Trust life, is what I say to everyone. Friends around the same age as me are wondering when it will happen to them. Life will happen when it’s supposed to happen.”

 
Celebrating the pregnancy with a stunning meal at a Mexican restaurant on King's Road in Chelsea, Arabella served cocktails named Princess Paloma, Miss Margarita and Angel Fresco in honour of her baby girl. She was supported by family and friends at the bash - including former TOWIE star Ferne McCann and Love Island alums Georgia Harrison and Olivia Hawkins.

"I’m so happy for her and Billy,” Georgia said. “It’s mad how much she’s done since leaving the villa. It’s so nice seeing your friend finally getting what she deserves.

“She’ll be a brilliant, cool mum. The kind of mum where everyone wants to go to her house, she’s got loads of food and it’s chaos, but good chaos. I’ll be cool aunt Georgia. She’ll come to my house when she’s in trouble and needs someone to talk to.”

Fellow Love Islander Olivia Hawkins said Arabella had opened up to her about her dreams of being a mum - and how she was so happy that is was coming true. “We’ve spoken about her wanting a baby for ages so I just can’t believe it’s actually happening,” shared Liv, 29. “A baby girl, I’m really happy about that. Lots of pink stuff. We’ll be taking her out when she’s old enough! I feel like it’s all happened at the best time and they’re going to be amazing parents.”
