Charley and Matthew are already parents to nine-year-old Buster and three-year-old Bowie.

Charley claimed that with her second pregnancy, Buster had been “desperate” for a brother and got to have his dream come true, but now he’s at loggerheads with his sibling.

“We’ve got it again now, the pressure of what sex it’s going to be as Bowie wants a brother and Buster wants a sister!” she told OK!

“Buster was so desperate for Bowie to be a boy and he was, so it would be nice to have that same thing for Bowie – but it doesn’t matter to me at all.”

She went on to say that she’d always seen herself having four children – three boys and then a girl.

Matthew revealed that the couple have some names in mind for the baby, but claimed they hadn’t thought about it as much as they did in the past.

“With the other two we used to sit at night and look at baby names on our phones but we haven’t done that this time,” he said.

Charley and Matthew married last year – nine years after announcing they were expecting their first child together.

The couple split briefly in 2013 before reconciling the following year.
