The couple - who married in 2009 - first announced the news that they were expecting their second child in a video showing their son Koa, three, shouting his excitement.

He broke the news, saying: "Mummy's got a baby in her belly and I'm going to be a big brother!"

Speaking about the pregnancy to OK! earlier this year, Albert said: "The bond was so much quicker this second time. Almost immediate.

"I didn't realise how much I wanted another child until I found out I was pregnant again."
