Sonny Jay and Danielle Peazer are expecting their first child together.

The former 'Dancing on Ice' winner - who triumphed in the 13th series of the ice-skating show in 2021 - and the dancer, who previously dated Liam Payne, have been keeping their pregnancy under wraps, but the couple have now revealed their little one is due this spring.

In a joint statement on Instagram, they wrote: "We’re having a baby.

"It’s a secret we’ve been keeping for a while, enjoying this little bubble of excitement and preparing for our biggest adventure so far. But now we feel ready to share this journey with you, including the highs (and inevitable tantrums) it will bring.

"Arriving Spring 2024 (sic)"

The couple also shared a thought for anyone who is "struggling with fertility or pregnancy issues".

Capital Breakfast star Sonny and personal trainer Danielle added: "We can’t post this without acknowledging those who may be struggling with fertility or pregnancy issues and are sending love to anyone affected."

Several stars congratulated the pair on their happy news.

Little Mix singer Leigh-Anne Pinnock wrote: "Congrats guys! This is so beautiful (sic)"

Pop star Olly Murs wrote: "Wow congratulations! what’s a year to be first time dads sonny.. come on! We got this (sic)"

New 'This Morning' presenter Sian Welby - who co-hosts Capital Breakfast alongside Sonny - posted: "THIS IS THE HAPPIEST NEWS (sic)"

Former 'Love Island' star Dani Dyer wrote: "Oh this is amazing! Congratulations"

Former 'Big Brother' winner Kate Lawler also sent her congratulations, and offered the pair a realistic, yet tongue in cheek, view on parenthood.

She commented: "Yesssssss! Congratulations guys. Also welcome to hell. (sic)"

Danielle previously dated One Direction star Liam for two years, and they briefly rekindled in 2022.

Sonny and his former music producer fiancée Lauren Faith split in 2022.
