A TEEN MUM who fell pregnant aged 13 has shared the joy of welcoming her second child.
Maddie Lambert-Crowley, who self-styles as “that girl who got pregnant at 13”, welcomed a baby boy named Ryder James last week.
He was born weighing 7lb 14oz and measuring 20 inches.
Maddie, 20, dubbed her newborn a “beautiful, beautiful boy” and revealed that her six-year-old daughter, Everly Joy, is equally besotted with him.
She shares little Ryder with her husband, Randy Crowley, but shares Everly with another dad.

Maddie is a firm believer that teen pregnancy isn’t something to “look down” on young girls for and has openly admitted that she judged teen mums before becoming one.
“I’d always look down on teen mums, if I’m being completely honest,” she told Truly.
“I think that was just from a lack of knowing what it’s really like.
“Whenever you would see the media surrounding teen mums, you see the TV shows, and it’s just really negative and it shows a lot of drama.
“When I actually got pregnant, I was so scared of the reaction people were gonna give.
