(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr have released the first picture of their son Flynn, in which Miranda is nursing him.

The couple confirmed Miranda was expecting last year, shortly after they married in secret in July. They welcomed their son into the world on January 6, but initially struggled to decide what to call him. Miranda has now posted a picture of their son on her website, and revealed his name is Flynn.

On the 6th of January I gave birth to our beautiful little son Flynn, she wrote on KoraOrganics.com. He weighed 9lb 12 ounces (a very healthy and big baby boy). I gave birth to him naturally; without any pain medication and it was a long, arduous and difficult labour, but Orlando was with me the whole time supporting and guiding me through it. I could not have done it without him.

Accompanying the post is a picture of Miranda and Flynn, in which the pair are lying on a bed. The model, wearing a red nightgown, is smiling to camera while she breastfeeds the tot.

We are so happy and are enjoying our time together as a family. He is our little ray of sunshine, she wrote. Thank you everyone for your beautiful well wishes and your lovely thoughts and comments... The attached picture is one that Orlando took of us. Much love Miranda and Orlando xxx.

Miranda, 27, and 34-year-old Orlando have been together since 2007. (C) Cover Media
