Pregnant Gemma Atkinson reveals big clue about baby name amid secret wedding claims

Gemma Atkinson gave fans a clue as to what she might be naming her second baby.

The former Hollyoaks actress, who met fiancé Gorka Marquez on Strictly Come Dancing, announced her pregnancy last weekend.

She revealed her bump became "impossible to hide" and that she would be expecting a baby boy - her first son after welcoming daughter Mia in 2019.

And now, Gemma took to her Instagram to answer a few fan questions about her baby and whether she has chosen a name yet.

"Not yet but it will deffo be Spanish. 'Mia' means 'mine' in Spanish and if this one was a girl it was going to be 'Vida', as that means 'life'," she explained.

"Obv together they'd be 'my life' but boys' names are harder. It's the pronunciation, for example, Theo in Spain is pronounced Tao, so it can be complicated."

Gemma shared the news of her pregnancy with a sweet black and white photo of herself in tracksuit bottoms and a vest top as she gazed down at her bump.

She tweeted: "Impossible to hide my belly any longer. I’ve officially 'popped.'

"Our baby boy will be joining our family later this year.

"We feel so incredibly blessed and Grateful to be on this journey again. Mia is absolutely thrilled! Although we may need to do some negotiating on names, as so far she’s adamant he’s going to be called Barbie."

Meanwhile, it was recently rumoured that Gemma and her fiancé Gorka have secretly gotten married.

The sweet couple have been engaged since he got down on one knee to propose on Valentine's Day in 2021.

Last year, she and Gorka said they were thinking about a registry office wedding.

Some fans believe the two might have already tied the knot after spotting some signs on Instagram.

Gemma showed off the couple's new kitchen to her fans online earlier this week, following the renovation work in their home being completed.

As the former soap star thanked her building team for their hard work, fans spotted a clue the actress and Gorka have already tied the knot - a couple of mugs inscribed with the words 'Mr' and 'Mrs'.
