Introducing Stella Doreen McDermott!

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott show off their newborn daughter, Stella Doreen McDermott, in this week's issue of OK! magazine. Little Stella arrived on June 9.

Some highlights from the interview:

On becoming pregnant with Stella:
“She’s a miracle, I was on one pill and wasn’t feeling well, so I went off of it. Two days later, the doctor put me on another, and on that one day, we conceived. It was meant to be!”

On meeting Stella for the first time:
“My first thought was, ‘My god, she’s so beautiful. My second thought was, ‘Oh my god, she has black hair! Where did that come from?’ [laughs] Liam has blond hair and is very fair. She was born with black hair, very tan.”

On Dean's reaction to meeting Stella:
He says, “When I saw Stella for the first time, I just bawled my face off out of pure joy. I’ve always heard that there’s nothing like that bond between father and daughter. There is nothing like it — you feel it that moment. It hit me like a ton of bricks. Little boys are awesome. They’re just like a little you. But having a little girl is something else. As a man, you just lose it.”

Pick up this week's issue of OK! for more from the couple about their newest addition.
