"It just seems like a good time to share some news with everybody and the crew in the studio for the first time.

"Lockdown has been anything but predictable and we've had some really unexpected news. Baby number three is on the way."

Ronan, who has five children, asked her: "Boy or a girl?" to which she replied: "A little girl!"

Alex got engaged to insurance broker Charlie Thomson in February 2015 after meeting at a party in 2011.

The couple tied the knot the same year at Cardiff Castle on December 31 - announcing they were expecting their first child less than a year later.
