Reality stars Heidi and Spencer Pratt have shared the first photo of their son Gunner Stone who was born on October 1st 2017. The pair, who rose to fame on American TV show The Hills,** came runners up on Celebrity Big Brother in 2013 and most recently on Big Brother 2017: All Stars vs New Stars**, where they were eighth to be evicted.

The pair posted the first picture of their son Gunner Stone on Instagram. The picture showed the trio posing for the cover of US Weekly. Heidi captioned the picture, 'Miracle baby! Welcome to the world my angel @gunnerpratt!'

The couple explained to the magazine that they want their son to be interested in sports and that's where the name Gunner came from. Spencer said, 'He’ll probably be a pitcher, so when Gunner steps to the mound, he’s going to be gunning those throws down home plate. If he wants to be a skier, he’s going to be gunning down those moguls. It just applies to a lot of sports.'

Heidi shot to fame in 2006 after starring alongside Lauren Conrad (LC) on The Hills, who she had a very famous falling out with when she started dating Spencer, who joined the show in 2007.

The reason that Lauren ended her friendship with Heidi was reportedly due to the fact she suspected Spencer was responsible for rumours of a sex tape involving her and her former boyfriend Jason Wahler. Despite the famous falling out being years ago, Spencer couldn't resist having a cheeky dig at outselling LC's baby announcement cover. He wrote on Twitter, 'G Stone US cover outsells little Liam's, but no hard feelings among Hills cuzins'. SIC

Spencer is the elder sibling of Made in Chelsea star Stephanie Pratt who shared the magazine cover on her own Instagram along with the caption, 'Flights booked!!! Can't wait to meet you @gunnerpratt & LOL that I typed in ur name and an Instagram handle came up 😂😂'

Yes you read that right, Gunner Stone Pratt has his very own Instagram account and he has over 21,000 followers.

Shortly after giving birth, Heidi posted on her Instagram account, 'Pregnancy has been the most incredible journey of my life! It has truly transformed me as a woman and person. I’ve never felt so blessed to hold my gorgeous healthy son. I’ve never loved my husband more! Thank you for capturing this beautiful journey @oxanaalexphotography'.
