Whilst the news came a surprise to most, for Emily and Peter, a third baby has always been on the cards. Opening up to HELLO! In an exclusive interview last year Emily revealed that she has always wanted three kids, while Peter has always wanted five – meaning if they added another member to their family, they'd both reach their respective dream numbers of little ones.
Peter also had never ruled out the idea of welcoming another baby. Talking to Vicky Patterson on her podcast The Secret To, Peter was asked if he wants more children, to which he replied: "Children… I was like, when I get to 50 I'm done and then I find myself having conversations with Em going, 'Yeah you know, if we did have another child, where would we put Junior?'"

Peter, 50, and Emily, 33, share four children in their blended family: Theo, six, and daughter Amelia, nine, as well as Peter's daughter Princess, 16, and son Junior, 18, from his marriage to Katie Price.
