From one family to another, congratulations @HarryArter2!#afcb 🍒 https://t.co/5zxQ9yVfAW
Raine’s middle name, Renee, is in memory of the couple’s first daughter, who was tragically stillborn in December 2015.
Arter remembered Renee, while welcoming Raine into the world, by posting a picture of a rainbow, including two hearts.
Thrilled with the incredible news @HarryArter2 and Rachel have a baby daughter Raine. With Fondest Love from us all 🍾🌈

“A rainbow baby is the understanding that the beauty of a rainbow does not negate the ravage of a storm,” began the message.
“When the rainbow appears, it doesn’t mean the storm never happened or that the family is now dealing with its aftermath.
“What is means is that something beautiful and full of light has appeared in the midst of the darkest clouds…”
He also wrote, below the picture, “Welcome Raine Renee Arter, we are all so proud of you.”
