“Ali can’t wait to watch ‘The Biggest Loser’ tonight with her daughter,” the rep noted.

Earlier in the day, prior to giving birth, Sweeney was working on the set of “The Biggest Loser,” filming the show’s current seventh season.

Sweeney also has a 3-year-old son, Ben, with husband Dave Sanov. The couple tied the knot in July 2000.
