The youngster, who was 10 when she became pregnant, gave birth earlier this month and both mother and baby are healthy, the Sun states.
Now social services are investigating the circumstances surrounding the pregnancy and speaking to her family who were unaware of the pregnancy, the newspaper adds.
A source told The Sun: ““It has come as a big shock. She’s now being surrounded by expert help. The main thing is that she and the baby are OK.
“There are questions around why people did not know. That is very worrying.”
The previous youngest mother is said to be Tressa Middleton when she gave birth in 2006, aged 12, but she was forced to give her up after confessing the child’s dad was her brother, who raped her.

Puberty normally begins around 11 for girls but it can span from eight to 14, with weight playing a factor.
There is a higher risk of problems developing when younger children are pregnant including premature labour, infections and pre-eclampsia.
There was a reported case in 2017 of another girl in the UK giving birth aged 11 but no further details emerged.
Tressa pictured with her second child Arihanna has said how happy she was after the problems with her first baby.

Father at 13. How does he appear now, 12 years later?
The global community was taken aback by the surprising news of a 13-year-old boy and a 15-year-old girl becoming parents at an exceptionally young age. We will update you in the future regarding the trajectory of their lives.
While a young girl, Chantelle, started noticing changes in her physique, the children were apprehensive about disclosing the truth to their parents during that period. The mother of the expectant girl observed the transformation in her daughter’s appearance, realizing that a significant event had occurred that couldn’t be reversed. Alfie was overjoyed by the news, yet the uncertain future lay ahead.
The parents of the upcoming father were utterly distraught. The young couple’s journey was documented on national television even before their daughter’s birth. Alfie displayed remarkable composure while caring for the infant. Amid the turmoil, a DNA test was demanded by the father’s parents, revealing that the child was not biologically his. Alfie spiraled into a deep depression after the young mother and child decided to leave town, facing relentless media attention that refused to give the couple any respite.
A dozen years later, the young woman had another child, this time with a different man. Meanwhile, Alfie had never encountered true love, his solace found in the grip of alcoholism. Regrettably, the man had amassed a record of twelve offenses, with an ongoing investigation into his actions.
Is it socially acceptable or inappropriate to become parents at such a young age.
