Jordan wrote: “Have the best day at your baby shower @naomiella21! You deserve it beautiful, you’re going to be the best mum when the time comes, I love you. #BabyShower #MumToBe.”

With his coat on, it looked like the Diversity dancer was leaving the female guests to it, and Naomi later posted several more pictures of her special day.

Speaking to OK! magazine, Naomi admitted she took a total of nine pregnancy tests.

She said: “I wanted to be sure so I went out and bought eight more tests. I sat with them laid out in front of me on the bathroom floor, staring at them in disbelief. We always said we wanted kids together, we just didn’t think it would happen this soon. We’re over the moon, though!”

Jordan added: “It took a bit of time for me to get excited about becoming a dad because it’s going to be a huge lifestyle change. Right now my greatest responsibility is making sure my phone is charged!”

And there was another shock when they found out they were having a boy.

Naomi admitted: “I started crying when they said it was a boy because I was completely convinced we were having a girl. I was delighted it was a boy but I felt very overwhelmed, as I’d mentally prepared myself for it to be a daughter.”

Congratulations, guys!
