UK runner up, who appeared on the talent show in 2012, also shared photos of her newborn in a pink babygrow and matching pink bib at a garden party with friends.

Bo married , one half of the electronic music duo Zero 7, in 2016 and the couple welcomed a son into the world a year later.

It comes as Bo, whose full name is Lady Catherine Brudenell-Bruce, is taking her brother to the High Court again after winning a legal dispute over their inheritance in 2022.

The Aristocratic singer entered a bitter £2m inheritance battle with her “extremely wealthy” brother Thomas, a viscount, nearly ten years after their mum died.

Thomas had failed to sell their family home and Judge Deputy Master John Linwood said in 2022 the viscount “ignored his responsibilities” to his sister as executor of the will.

The heard that Bo – whose lawyers say is in “parlous financial circumstances” – and her brother grew up on the family's historic Savernake Estate, near Marlborough, Wiltshire.

The estate has been in the family since it was gifted to the Brudenell-Bruces' ancestors by and has passed down through the generations in an unbroken line ever since.

The Grade-I listed 92,000 square feet Tottenham House, which has 100 rooms, was at its centre, but has more recently been used as a prep school and by a charity, before being sold for £11.5m in 2015.

Both siblings were brought up at Savernake Lodge, another substantial property on the estate, before moving into Leigh Hill House with their mum after their parents' divorce in 2009.

Bo’s barrister, Steven Ball, told the judge that relations had been “fairly amicable” between the siblings in the aftermath of their mum's death and she had wanted the house to stay in the family.

But the court then heard that she changed her mind in 2015, emailing her brother and his representatives in a “desperate need for money.”;

Thomas did not want the house to be sold to a stranger, and agreed he would continue living there and pay £20,000-a-year rent to his sister to reflect her half ownership.

He claimed that he would ultimately buy her out of her share, and gave her regular loans to help cover her living expenses and £11,000 towards her wedding.

However in the years following he did nothing to progress to buying her out or selling the property, which resulted in her feeling “locked into ownership”; of the property which was her “only financial security.”;

Bo criticised the traditional system of male primogeniture, which favours male heirs in inheritance matters, describing it as “archaic” and “sexist”.

The siblings' father, the , who was estranged from Bo, attended the two-day trial in 2022.

She has now launched a new High Court action listed as ‘dispute(s) relating to trust property'.

Bo shot to fame in 2012 after finishing as a runner-up on The Voice UK, going on to sign for Mercury Records and releasing Top 10 album Before I Sleep in 2013.

She also performed at V Festival and T in the Park.

She released album Bones Of Man in 2016 and it reached the No.1 spot on the electronic album charts.
