Nick announced the news they were expecting back in January 2021, telling fans: “life blessed you with little surprises.”
The fitness fanatic only realised she was pregnant fives months in as she never thought she’d be able to conceive again.
Speaking out about when she realised she was expecting, she said: “I didn’t have any symptoms. I didn’t have anything indicating that I was pregnant.
“One day I just — I felt something move in my body and I said, ‘Nick, there’s something not right. I think I need to go to the doctor. Something’s wrong with me.’

“I was not supposed to be able to have any more children, so I never assumed that I was pregnant.”
Their new arrival is such happy news for the family as Lauren as had multiple miscarriages in the past between giving birth to Odin and Saoirse.
Nick and Lauren met back in 2008 at a house gathering and the rest is history for the couple.
The pair got engaged five years later and tied the knot in 2014.
