Not long after Emelia Jackson won MasterChef: Back To Win in 2020, the baking whizz took on her next and very important job – mum to her baby daughter Addie.
Addie (short for Adelyn) was born on June 4, 2021 and it’s safe to say that Emelia was smitten from the moment she arrived.
“In love in a way I never knew was possible,” the cake queen penned on her Instagram Stories.
Whilst she mostly uses her platform to promote her incredible baking creations, Emelia has shared some insights about life as a new mum with fans.
Since Addie came into the picture, Emelia has said that despite it being a full-on job, she loves parenting.
“I really do love being a mummy. It’s incredibly hard, relentless, rewarding, special and fun. It’s a feeling I could never have imagined until I had her,” she mused in an Instagram Q&A.
What’s more, we bet a lot of mums can relate to the two main things she’s been surprised to learn.
“1. The instant feeling of crazy love I felt for this little bean as soon as I saw her. 2. That something this small, can produce the farts she does. It’s truly wild.”
However, like many parents in the public eye, Emelia and partner Craig aren’t sharing photos of Addie’s face online.
“My following is just too large and I’ve received some really sick/violating/creepy messages in the past. So I’m not willing to expose her like that,” the MasterChef star explained via Instagram.
What’s more, the Melbourne couple have spent a lot of the past 18 months in and out of lockdown.
“It’s been quite tough this time around if I’m being honest,” Emelia confessed in August this year. “Lots of my friends still haven’t met my beb, I’ve been furiously writing my book and trying to be really present with my girl. It’s a juggling act that’s for sure.”

Shortly after Addie’s arrival, Emelia shared two pictures featuring her precious newborn.
“My best creation yet 💖 04•06•21,” she sweetly captioned the post.
Whilst we know her name now, for a while Emelia and Craig kept it private.
“We’re keeping her to ourselves for now x,” the mum-of-one replied to a fan when asked if she has a name.
