Alex Reid and Nikki Manashe expecting twins after seven-year IVF battle
Alex Reid and his fiancée Nikki Manashe are expecting twins after a seven-year IVF battle.
The 47-year-old and his partner Nikki, 36, revealed they are now expecting non-identical twins after welcoming their daughter Anastasia in 2021.
She is now 13 weeks pregnant and said she was once told by doctors that she 'won't be able to have children'.
Nikki was implanted with two embryos, a seven-year-old one and another one from her IVF cycle from when she got pregnant with Anastasia.
She revealed: "It's crazy a woman, who was told 'you probably won't be able to have children', and has had fertility struggles is now going to be a mum-of-three."
