Kimberley admitted herself and Justin are both thrilled about the news and knew the time was right. She said "When I first met Justin 14 years ago, I told him I wanted four children. We are both over the moon."

The couple already share 21-month-old son Bobby together after welcoming him into the world back in 2014.

Kimberley's former band mates and best friends, Cheryl and Nicola Roberts, were amongst the first few people to hear of the news and are 'so happy' for the couple. Kimberley said "When Cheryl came over to visit, I couldn't keep my pregnancy a secret any longer. She was so happy for us and thinks it's great to keep our family growing and that there will be a small age gap between Bobby and the new baby."

Kimberley met her husband Justin back in 2002 during her time in Girls Aloud and have revealed they opted not to find out the sex of their baby during the 12-week scan.

The couple’s second child is expected to arrive in December.
