Gemma and Gorka announced they were expecting their first baby together in February, and the radio presenter has since been sharing the highs and lows of her pregnancy journey on social media. While she has maintained her healthy diet and exercise routine – sparking concern among some of her followers – Gemma has also allowed herself to indulge in a few more treats and rest days when her body needs it, and recently posted a photo of herself tucking into a takeaway pizza saying she is "entitled to a lazy day now and then" in the lead up to giving birth.
Meanwhile, professional dancer Gorka recently opened up about his delight about becoming a father for the first time. Discussing how they will raise their baby, Gorka told The Sun that their child will be bilingual. "Of course our baby will learn to speak Spanish," he revealed. "Gemma loves where I'm from too. She is been to visit, we love how hot it is." The pro added: "I love being an uncle so I can't wait to be a dad."
