The couple also spoke about the reveal to OK Magazine.
Briony said: “We hadn’t been trying for long but I bought a board you serve eggs on which had ‘daddy you’re a good egg’ etched into it. I wanted a nice way to tell Sam when I did fall pregnant and I always make him dippy eggs.
“Luckily for us, as soon as I could do my first pregnancy test, it was positive.”

Sam added: “I came down for breakfast and the fire was on, the highlights of Match of the Day were on TV; it felt like it was my birthday!
“Briony put the board down and I started eating and I didn’t even notice the message, as I was too busy watching Burnley play.
“After a few minutes I saw it and was so excited. I kept saying ‘really?’ It was very surreal.”
Telling her parents
As well as revealing the news to Sam, Briony has also shared how she told her parents.
