Kieran Hayler has announced the exciting news that he’s expecting his first child with fiancee Michelle Penticost. 

The former stripper already shares two children with ex-wife Katie Price; son Jett, seven, and daughter Bunny, six, while Michelle has son, Valentino, from a previous relationship.

Now, the couple are set to welcome their first child together with Michelle due to give birth in August. They’re yet to reveal the baby’s sex.

Announcing the news to OK! Magazine, Kieran said: ‘It’s nice to bring families together, like Michelle and Valentino with me, Jett and Bunny. It will bring us together as a whole family and cements us forever.’ 

Michelle added: ‘We’re really excited to announce our news to the world. We found out in the last week of November.’ 

Kieran praised his fiancee on how she’s dealt with the morning sickness so far and said: ‘She’s done very well. I’m really proud of her.’ 

The 33-year-old also revealed how he’s found co-parenting Jett and Bunny with Katie and said they only communicate ‘about the kids’.

Kieran and Michelle got engaged a year ago during a romantic holiday in the Maldives. 

A source said at the time: ‘He’s known he wanted to do this for ages, but wanted to wait for the perfect moment.

‘[Kieran is] really keen to get the divorce finalised now because he can’t wait to marry Michelle. He loves his life with her and wants to make it official.’

The couple began dating in 2018 after meeting in the playground of their children’s school.

On Sunday, Kieran shared a sweet Mother’s Day message to Michelle in an Instagram post and wrote: ‘Happy Mother’s Day to this absolutely incredible person. Thank you for everything you do for jett and bunny.

‘I am so lucky to have met you. Your an amazing mother to valentino and a great role model for all three children. We make an incredible team and so proud to call us a family. ❤

‘️My fiancée Michelle I love you. Hope you have the best day.’

Last month, Kieran and Katie’s divorce was finalised three years after they separated.

Celebrating the news, the former glamour model told The Sun: ‘Finally, we’ve signed the divorce papers. I’m so happy that I’m free from that marriage. The only good thing that came out of it was my children.’

Katie is now planning on marrying boyfriend Carl Woods and having more children. The reality star is already a mother-of-five to son Harvey, 18, from her former romance with Dwight Yorke; Junior, 15, and Princess, 13 with ex-husband Peter Andre; as well as Bunny and Jett.
