McCann’s pregnancy has been full of surprises. She told Holly Willoughby on ‘This Morning’ that she hadn’t been planning to get pregnant.

“Missing a period is the biggest indicator,” she said. “I was really worried.

“My mum said do a test. I bought two just to be sure. I took one test, it said that I was pregnant - you almost don’t believe it - then I did the other one.

“So I got over the initial shock. My mum, my family, everyone got over the initial shock and I’m just so excited.

“I feel like this is a blessing.”

She also revealed that she hadn’t found out the sex of her baby at her scan appointment as she wanted that to be a surprise when she gave birth.
