Chloe Ferry has gone public with a new relationship and signalled she may be ready to start a family, posting loved‑up images on Instagram and referring to her partner as her "baby daddy."
The 30‑year‑old Geordie Shore alum shared a series of snaps and videos on Sunday that showed public displays of affection and revealed the man's face for the first time. In an accompanying post, Ferry called him her "soulmate," "the love of my life" and wrote that he has "swept me off my feet," saying she felt "lucky in love" after a string of unsuccessful relationships.
In Instagram Stories and posts, Ferry broke down in tears while describing the shock of finding a long‑term partner and the relief she felt after turning 30 amid perceived pressure to settle down. One image showed the couple holding hands in a car; another captured a moment in which she said he had asked her to be his girlfriend, with Ferry writing: "Forever with you sounds amazing."
The identity of the man has not been confirmed by Ferry on her social channels, but The Sun reported the partner is Northumberland‑based property developer Alex Swinney, who has worked on transforming a historic building into short‑stay apartments. The Sun also reported that Swinney shares mutual friends with Ferry and other figures from the Geordie Shore circle. A source quoted by the tabloid described Ferry as "glowing with happiness."
Ferry's social posts and previous interviews make clear that starting a family has long been part of her plans. In 2021 she told The Sun she wanted a large family and to live on a farm, saying then: "My 10 year plan is I want to have 10 kids." In interviews the following years she reiterated a desire to settle down, telling new! magazine that she wanted a husband and to be financially secure before having children. In June 2022 she told Closer magazine that the prospect of friends and co‑stars starting families had made her feel broody and that she was considering beginning to have children in the near future.
Ferry split from boxer Johnny Wilbo in March after a relationship that began in 2021. That couple's break‑up followed reports of messaging between Wilbo and other women.
Since going public this weekend, Ferry has posted further messages urging others not to give up on love and reflecting on how the relationship has given her renewed trust and hope. The Daily Mail, which published the Instagram material, described scenes including the pair riding a cable car with Ferry seated on his lap and images of the couple kissing. According to that coverage, friends in Ferry's social circle have reacted positively to the news.
Ferry rose to prominence on Geordie Shore and has remained a visible figure in British reality television. Her posts follow a pattern familiar in contemporary celebrity culture, where social platforms are used both to reveal personal news and to shape public narratives about relationships and family plans. Neither Ferry nor the reported partner has released an official statement beyond the social media posts that revealed the relationship.
As of Monday there was no independent confirmation from Ferry's representatives about plans for children or a timeline for family life. The social posts and past interviews, however, indicate that having a large family is a long‑held ambition and that Ferry sees the current relationship as a potential step toward that goal.
