"My whole heart" - Paris has shared adorable new images of her newborn son.
American socialite Paris Hilton can't stop gushing about her son. The 42-year-old took to Instagram on Monday to show off her baby boy.
The sweet pictures show Paris cuddling her bundle of joy. "My whole heart," she wrote.
Paris revealed in January that she became a mom for the first time via surrogate. She named her baby Phoenix Barron Hilton-Reum.

This is the reality star's first child with her husband, Carter Reum - whom she married in a lavish Los Angeles ceremony in 2021.
Carter has another child from a previous relationship.
Paris told Vogue magazine in March that her son is "so precious and sweet". She also revealed the inspiration for her son's name.
The star loved the idea of "the rising phoenix". His second name, Barron, is inspired by her late grandfather Barron Hilton. Her younger brother is also named Barron

Paris is hoping to give Phoenix a sibling one day.
"I’m just excited to one day have a little girl named London, and she’ll have her big brother Phoenix to look after her. I’ve been planning this for a long time. I just had to find the right partner to do it with. It’s so hard to trust people, and I’m so grateful to have found my husband.”
Paris will likely welcome baby #2 via surrogacy too. She revealed in a separate interview with Glamour UK magazine that natural birth scares her.
"When I was in 'The Simple Life', I had to be in a room when a woman was giving birth and that traumatised me. But I want a family so bad, it’s just the physical part of doing it. I’m just so scared… childbirth and death are the two things that scare me more than anything in the world."
Paris said her friend Kim Kardashian - who has welcomed two children via surrogate - told her about surrogacy. Kim's sister, Khloe Kardashian also had a baby with Tristan Thompson with the help of a surrogate.
Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell, Rebel Wilson, and Priyanka Chopra are just some of the stars who have had a baby via surrogacy.
