Lucy Mecklenburgh has announced the exciting news that she’s pregnant with her second child.
The former Towie star shared the news with a cute Instagram announcement starring her one-year-old son Roman, who she shares with fiance Ryan Thomas.
In one snap, Lucy’s seen holding up a photo of the baby scan with her baby bump on show while Roman adorably lifts up his jumper to reveal his stomach too.
It’ll be former Coronation Street actor Ryan’s third child as he also shares daughter Scarlett with former partner Tina O’Brien.
Leading the congratulations, influencer Lydia Layton commented: ‘Awww, amazing news!!! Congratulations 😊 my two boys are 21 months apart and best friends! x.’
Rosie Williams said: ‘Ahhh amazing!! Congratulations beautiful family ♥️♥️♥️.’
Lucy, 30, recently opened up about becoming a first-time mum during the pandemic, and told OK! Magazine: ‘A lot of the times, especially if you’ve had a baby in lockdown, it’s hard work sometimes. Sometimes you think, “Is it only me that this has happened to?” but you realise that it’s not just you, everyone goes through the same things.’
She added: ‘It’s light-hearted and funny, but we also speak about our struggles in lockdown as well because it is a very different way to bring a baby into the world.
‘One moment you feel very isolated so it’s great to get a bit of support from people.’
The former reality star first met Ryan back in 2017, while competing on Celebrity Island With Bear Grylls together, and she previously revealed she ‘fell in love with him’ shortly after.
