Made In Chelsea's Ollie Locke and his husband Gareth revealed the amazing news they are expecting twins via a surrogate.
The pair have endured a traumatic road to fatherhood after first revealing that they were expecting back in June 2021, to later find out that the IVF had sadly failed.
The married couple then endured more heartbreak, and over the course of 2021, lost five embryos.
But today, Ollie, 35, shared the happy news on Instagram alongside a video of an ultrasound scan and some of his favourite moments with his husband.
Ollie wrote in the caption: "We are beyond delighted to finally be able to share the news that we are expecting twin baby Locke-Locke’s into the world this summer!
