Emily first announced her on Saturday and shared a photo of herself sporting a bump. She wrote in the caption that accompanied the selfie: "Hello everyone, it's been a little while but I'm back with some news. I'm delighted to share with you all that we're having a baby!"

She continued in the post: "I've never been so happy and utterly terrified at the same time. Please go easy on me. Every day is mixed with thrill, fear, joy, hysteria, topped off with a lot of vomiting - a bit like when you've just stepped off of the Oblivion at on a hangover."

Emily then commented: "I've got to know my body on such an insane level. It's made me appreciate the one I've been given SO much, I'm doing my absolute best to make it a home for the little squid I'm growing. We can already sense the baby is reclined on a mattress of peanut butter and jam sandwiches in there, demanding more chocolate buttons."

She concluded the post on the weekend by telling her followers: "I'm so happy to be writing all of this to you all. You've always stuck by me through the years, do stick around to watch me enter my mum era. Christ. Let's go."
