Ashley told the magazine their "little peanut" arrived at 3:34AM, weighing four pounds and 14 ounces, and that she and Anthony "never knew we could love someone so much."

"She is perfect in every way," Ashley gushed of their newborn. "Holding her for the first time was the most amazing, surreal moment of my life."
"Watching Anthony take care of her makes me love him even more," the new mom added. "He's already an amazing daddy. We can't wait to show this sweet little baby girl to the world."
The happy parents first announced Ashley's pregnancy in August 2018.
"We're pregnant! I am so excited... We have always dreamed of having a child and we are so happy to finally be making our dreams come true together," Ashley captioned an Instagram photo of the couple holding a sonogram photo of their unborn child at the time.
"We are over the moon and can not wait to welcome our child into the world. We cant wait for this next journey in our lives to begin!"
And then in late October, Ashley and Anthony revealed they were expecting a baby girl.
"Girls seem to be the first born on both [sides] of our families so we can't say we were surprised... All we were really hoping for was a healthy baby though. I don't think either of us really had a preference on the sex of the baby," Anthony told People at the time.

"As the dad, my first thought was, 'Oh man, I'm in trouble!' I know she will have me wrapped around her little finger. Ashley can't wait to do all the girl things that moms do with their daughters and I can't wait to watch them bond."

Ashley and Anthony, both residents of the Chicago area, wed in August 2016 for Season 5 of Married at First Sight, which aired on Lifetime in 2017.
All three of Married at First Sight's fifth-season couples opted to remain together on "Decision Day" at the end of the extreme experiment; however, Anthony and Ashley are the only one of the three still married today.
Last year, Anthony and Ashley also starred on Lifetime's Married at First Sight: Happily Ever After spinoff, which also followed Jephte Pierre, Bobby Dodd and their pregnant wives, Shawniece Jackson and Danielle Bergman, respectively.
Shawniece and Jephte welcomed their daughter Laura in late August 2018, but Danielle is still pregnant with her baby girl.
