Gemma's daughter interrupted her mum as she excitedly said: "Mummy has a baby coming," which caused Gemma to smile and Gorka to laugh.
She then revealed she and Gorka have known for some time they were expecting another child as she said: "We found out really early this time. Gorka was still doing Strictly when we found out, so we obviously went for scans and stuff.
"And I had to make that cringy phone call of: 'My fella's currently working on a massive show and just don't know if we're okay so can we try...' and how amazing were they?

"So yeah, they were just amazing. Again, not an ad, not gifted. We did it all by the book but they've just been wonderful and yeah, the local so highly recommend..."
