Fans quizzed Stacey on Instagram how she managed to keep the secret for so long. She explained: "We really wanted it to ourselves for that beginning bit, but we missed the beginning bit if that makes sense.
"We didn't have to keep it a secret for eight months because we didn't know for eight months. My periods were irregular from breastfeeding, we were planning a wedding then getting married and then just crazy busy life and it honestly didn't even register."
Stacey later issued a statement to confirm to a confused fan that she didn't discover her baby news eight months into the pregnancy. She added: "Just to clarify we didn't just find out at eight months. We found out, then wanted the first few months you would wait to have it to ourselves and here we are."
