"Lockdown's been anything but predictable and we've had some really unexpected news – baby number three is on the way!"
When Ronan pushed the former Strictly Come Dancing star to reveal the baby's gender, Alex confirmed that she'd be having her first girl.

Angellica Bell was thrilled with the news, leaving two comments, one that said: "CONGRATULAIONS AMAZING!" and a second that read: "I'm still buzzing with this news!"
Earlier this year, Alex celebrated making a major milestone with her youngest son when he experienced snow for the very first time.
In the sweet snap Kit can be seen reaching his hand out in an attempt to catch the falling snowflakes. The tot was being held by his doting father.
The image also gave fans a glimpse inside Alex's garden. As well as a seating area and a shed for storage, there is a large trampoline set up on the lawn and a football visible on the grass.
In 2017, the presenter devastatingly suffered a symptomless miscarriage while pregnant for the second time. She bravely presented The One Show just an hour after learning the sad news.
