The reality TV star announced the news in an interview with OK! magazine, and then confirmed it on Twitter.

Amy wrote on Twitter that she and boyfriend Bradley Wright are “so excited”.

Talking to OK! about their happy news, she said: “I feel so overwhelmed and I keep waking up smiling. We’ve wanted a baby for so long so we’re happier than ever.”

The couple have dated since 2014 but spent time apart as Bradley was imprisoned for a few months for handling stolen goods. He was released after just five months on good behaviour.

Their new addition is due in March next year.

Congratulations!
