When Sylvia Jeffreys and Peter Stefanovic announced that they were going to be parents, our hearts filled with pure, unbridled joy.

The couple, who met on the set of the Today Show, announced the news via Instagram back in August 2019 and couldn’t wait for their family to become a little bit bigger.

Speaking to The Australian Women’s Weekly in 2017, Sylvia confessed that she and Pete would “love a house full of kids.”

“Our hope is that down the track, we could have a house on the Gold Coast so that our kids can have the same experiences with their cousins that we both had as kids with our cousins,” Sylvia said.

So when Oscar Hamilton Stefanovic came into the world in February 2020, his parents were over the moon.

Ahead of Oscar’s birth, Peter told TV WEEK: “My whole life has been based on jumping in the deep end and seeing what happens. I feel you do your best learning that way – and being a dad will be no different. I plan to learn as I go.”

New mum

Posting to her 245,000 Instagram followers in the midst of the scary coronavirus crisis, Sylvia shared a heartwarming message to other new mothers who might be feeling anxious and isolated at home, alone with a newborn baby.

“While it’s a good time to be living in a little 💓 bubble with nowhere to go, I’m conscious of the confusion and anxiety that many new mums might be feeling right now,” Sylvia wrote, alongside this gorgeous mother-son selfie featuring baby Oscar.

“Mother’s groups – a social lifeline for many – have been cancelled, libraries closed, cafes are being avoided. So I just wanted to send some love and virtual hugs to other mamas out there who might be feeling extra isolated. Drop a comment below if you want to connect, chat about reflux, LOL about 💩namis, recommend some bingeworthy series, or share your sleep secrets. Let’s chat and be kind and stay connected. Big love, from us 💓 #togetherathome.”
