She said: “It was just pure chance that we were both there that night sat in the front row.

Jane Moore asked: “Due in December, do you think it’s gonna be a Christmas baby?”
The pair didn’t give away their due date but hinted: “Well, it could be, very possibly.”
Amy continued to say: “I’m hoping for the baby’s sake maybe it doesn’t arrive on Christmas Day because they will probably hate us forever.
“My grandma was a Christmas day baby and she always hated it so I’d feel bad about that.”
Congratulations to the beautiful pair!
