MICHELLE Keegan was left in tears watching pals Kate and Rio Ferdinand’s adorable pregnancy announcement on Instagram.
The happy couple revealed they were having a baby to their family and shared their children’s joyous reaction.
Kate and Rio revealed the heartwarming moment they told the kids on Instagram last night and fans, friends and family have all rushed to congratulate them.
Michelle Keegan, 32, was left in tears as she wrote underneath the adorable video: “Awwww that made me cry. Huge congratulations to you all, lovely news ❤️❤️❤️ xxx”
Lots of their other celeb pals all rushed to comment on the video to express their joy for the couple.
Dad-of-two, and with one on the way, Marvin Humes gushed: “Huge! Congrats to you all bro..very happy for you.”
Singer Olly Murs wrote: “Congratulations mate”
And DJ Reggie Yates emotionally penned: “Everything mate. Everything.”
Many of Rio’s footballing pals also joined in, with Robbie Keane, Steven Gerrard and Gary Lineker all adding their well wishes.
Kate, who has suffered early bouts of morning sickness, secretly filmed the moment they told Lorenz, 13, Tate, 11, and nine-year-old Tia – Rio’s kids with late wife Rebecca.
The kids screamed and jumped up and down with excitement as they were told they're getting a new brother or sister.
In the video the kids don't realise they're on camera while leafing through a family photo album.
On it is written: "Now for the next chapter, guess what?" – before Kate says: "I'm pregnant."
As the children jump around in shock, Kate stands up to show off her small bump and says: "Have you not noticed guys?"
The baby was conceived during lockdown, with ex-footie star Rio, 41, and wife Kate, 29, indoors since March.
The three children couldn't believe it. Tia started chanting: "Sister, sister," while the boys were in shock and kept asking: "Are you actually?"
Kate captioned the sweet video: "The crazy house is about to get a little bit crazier... every time I watch this it makes me cry, the best reaction. Baby Ferdy we are all so excited to meet you."
Posting to his 4.3million Instagram followers, Rio said: We got our wish, another Ferdinand en route!!
"@xkateferdinand I can’t wait to go through this whole pregnancy together and then bring our little human into this world. The reaction though."
A source said: "Rio and Kate are delighted and wanted Rio's kids to be the first to find out.
"They love having Kate as a stepmum but for her to have a child with their dad is incredibly exciting."
Kate coyly told earlier this month how her stepchildren outlined a timetable when she and their Dad would give them another sibling.

“She’s had a rough few weeks, but couldn’t be happier. She always wanted her own children with Rio, and to grow his existing family. Everyone is so excited.”
