A MADE In Chelsea star and his model girlfriend have revealed they’re expecting their first baby.
Sam Vanderpump and fiancée Alice Yaxley, 24, told the Mail the pregnancy came as a complete shock.
Sam Vanderpump and Alice Yaxley are expecting their first child
Alice said falling pregnant was a relief due to her polycystic ovaries
The couple, who are having a boy, have had a dramatic year beginning with Sam’s recovery from a near-death experience and then followed by their engagement.
Now they’re preparing to become a family of three.
“It was definitely a surprise,” said Alice. “I had missed a period, but I have polycystic ovaries, so it wasn’t a shock to have missed a period.
“But I did a test to be safe, and I wasn’t expecting anything, but it was positive. It was a big shock, we looked at each other and thought, wow, this is big but everything else in our lives was so right.”
She added: “I thought there’s a chance in the future that maybe I wouldn’t be able to have children so in a way it was a relief too because this shows that I can.”
Sam explained how they took a blood test to determine the baby’s sex to remove any more surprises from the equation.
