And on Wednesday night (September 21), Billie took to Instagram to share the sweet moment she and Greg told their two children firstborn Nellie, eight, and five-year-old son Arthur, that they were going to have a baby brother or sister. The video showed the family together at the dining table in their Essex home.
As Arthur sits on his mums lap, Nellie was in charge of opening the note which revealed the exciting news. After she realised, the youngster stared at her parents in shock and began to scream in excitement before throwing her arms around a pregnant Billie. The growing family of four then shared a group hug as they beamed over the news.
"A moment we will treasure forever," Billie typed alongside the clip to her millions of followers. "Telling Nelly and Arthur that they are going to have a baby brother or sister. So excited for tonight’s episode of @familydiariesofficial 9pm @itvbe (also available on the ITV Hub) we hope you enjoy the show."
Billie shared the clip ahead of it appearing in her and Greg's ITVBe show, Billie and Greg: The Family Diaries. She explained that after taking a test to confirm she was pregnant: "We wrote a letter from the baby to Arthur and Nelly and put it by the front door.
"It said, ‘Dear Nelly and Arthur, you haven’t met me yet, but I’m in Mummy’s tummy. I’m going to be your brother or sister. I can’t wait to meet you.’ Nelly read the letter and screamed and was crying – they were happy tears!"
And her celeb pals and followers were left in tears. Former Love Island star Oliva Bowen said: "Oh my god this is everything." Jacqueline Jossa replied: "Soooooo cute." Former TOWIE star Lauren Pope added; "The best reaction.

The latest episode also saw the moment Billie told her mum, Suzie Wells, the news. "Mum, come here look at this,” she called out. Come here, I’ve got something to show you," she teased before showing her something on her phone.
"What? Are you pregnant? Oh my god, oh my god, how comes you haven’t told me?" her mum replied before throwing her hands in the air in joy. "Oh my god, Billie," she cried and hugged her youngest daughter. "I can’t believe you didn’t tell me. No wonder you wasn’t drinking last night! [sic] That’s amazing, I can’t believe it. Oh Billie, oh Billie!” She then bent down to Billie’s belly and said: “Hello in there!” to her future grandchild.
