“We are very excited!” he said.

“I know it’s bad to say, but I was kind of hoping the first child would be a boy so purely if you have girls afterwards, which we’d very much like to have, I always thought it’s nice to have an older brother.

“We’d like to have at least three in an ideal world.”

Spencer declined to reveal exactly what names he and Vogue were considering for the little boy, but confirmed the tot’s two middle names have already been chosen.

“We do have an idea of names but Vogue has asked me to keep that to ourselves,” he said.

“I’ve spoken a bit before on the show about the Michael Matthews Foundation. One of his middle names will be Michael after my late brother and one will be Frederick after her late father.”

Spencer’s brother Michael tragically died while climbing Mount Everest in 1999. Vogue’s father, Frederick, passed away in 2010.

This Morning host Ruth Langsford pointed out that Spencer’s other brother, James, is also about to become a dad with his wife, Pippa.

Spencer, however, let nothing slip about his brother and Pippa, who is the Duchess of Cambridge’s sister.

When asked if James and Pippa know the gender of their child, Spencer said: “They are extremely private and, honestly, we know nothing so I’m not able to comment.”

He added: “The [children] will be a very similar age and I think it will be great for the kids to grow up together, as such. We’re all looking forward to it and very blessed.”
