It's party time for the dads-to-be

Prince William and Kate Middleton aren’t the only ones who’ll be welcoming a new addition to their family imminently – Tom Daley and his husband Dustin Lance Black are about to become dads, too.

And the couple are clearly excited about their little one’s arrival, as they’ve been sharing pictures of their “surprise” baby shower on social media.

Olympic diver Tom, 23, and his screenwriter husband, 43, looked well chuffed as they prepared for fatherhood with a lavish spread of food and some comedy fashion accessories.

And fans of the pair joined in the happy moment, ‘showering’ them with congratulatory messages.

Fans of the pair – who got married last year – loved the shots and wasted no time in sending their warmest wishes.

“The way you think about the world changes so dramatically.”
