Is it a boy? Is it a girl?
Ryan Thomas and Lucy Mecklenburgh have excitedly revealed the sex of their unborn baby.
It comes after the pair announced they were expecting their first child together, after getting engaged just months before.
Taking to Instagram, Ryan posted a photo of Lucy sat on his knee, with Ryan cradling her baby bump. Ryan is dressed in BLUE swimming trunks, whilst Lucy also dons the same colour.
He captioned the photo, 'Blue is for.....? 👶🏽💙🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽.'

Ryan's younger brother Adam Thomas was also one of the first to reply to the stunning image, writing, 'Dreams really do come true!!'
The news of the baby's gender comes after Lucy teased her followers on Instagram, telling them herself and Ryan had gone to find out the gender, but hadn't yet opened the notes to find out whether it was a boy or girl!
Holding the envelope, Lucy said, "OMG my gender results. I want to open it so bad. It's going to kill me this. I'm going to hide it somewhere. Can someone pick it up and hide it for me?"
Congratulations guys!
