TV presenter Abbey Gelmi and Richmond premiership star Kane Lambert have welcomed their second son.

Gelmi posted the happy news on Tuesday, revealing she’d given birth to Oliver Herb Lambert on Sunday.

“My boys,’’ she captioned a picture of Lambert holding Oliver and their 20 month-old son Louis.

“Everyone happy, healthy and very much in love.”

Gelmi, who announced their engagement in September last year, welcomed Louis in March last year.

The Channel 7 sports presenter is the granddaughter of middle-distance running legend Herb Elliott.

She shared two black and white photos and one of herself cradling the newborn.

Earlier this year Gelmi revealed she’d had a difficult pregnancy battling a “debilitating” case of Hyperemesis Gravidarum, a severe type of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.

“Pregnancy is such a sensitive subject and my thoughts are with those struggling, however, I wanted to share our experience with hyperemesis in the hope that others who endure it know they’re not alone,” Gelmi wrote on social media.

“While we’re so grateful to be adding to our family, HG has been debilitating. I’ve been in hospital three days a week for most of the first trimester, unable to keep anything down or leave bed with relentless nausea. I’d get dizzy when I stood, couldn’t care for Louis and my mental health took a dive.

“It can be terribly isolating, but there is help available and @hyperemesisaustralia is a great place to start.”
