Amy revealed that she has settled on a boy's name but has still to decide on a girl's name that she and boyfriend Billy Delbosq both like.
She wrote in her column: “There’s a few names that we like, but we keep going back to a certain one.
"We’re not going to say anything just yet because people always have something to say about it - plus, I might really go off it by the time the twins arrive.”
"But, at this moment in time, there is a boy’s name that we like. We’re still unsure about a girl’s.”
