Pregnant Gemma Atkinson has said it's 'sad but true' as she revealed how one of the few people she told about her baby news had tried to sell the story. The former Emmerdale and Hollyoaks actress announced the joyous news last month that she and her fiance Gorka Marquez are expecting their second child together.
The couple, who met when Gemma was a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing in 2017, already share daughter Mia, who was born in July 2019, together and shared how they are set to welcome a baby boy to their growing family this summer.
They shared the news alongside a string of black and white images which Gemma and dancer Gorka both posted to their Instagram pages. One image showed Gemma gazing at her blossoming bump before she grinned for a selfie with her husband-to-be and their little girl as they wait to become a family-of-four - or six if you include Gemma's beloved dogs Ollie and Norman.
