Many a weekend morning was spent in front of the TV, cornflakes in tow, watching the crazy life of Tracy Beaker.

For many, it was a weekly ritual, and made you want to get up to all sorts of mad things. 

Well, now the former teen star, Dani Harmer, is making us feel rather old, as she has revealed that she's pregnant.

The actress is expecting her first child with boyfriend Simon Brough, and has admitted that she's "always wanted to be a mum."

In an interview with Hello!, Dani said: "I absolutely can't wait. I'm also really nervous. But I guess I just have to take each day as it comes."

Her boyfriend, Simon, also seems to be pretty excited about the upcoming arrival.

"Starting a family is something we've joked about pretty much from day one," he said.

"But we don't want to get married just because we're having a baby. Dani wants the little one to walk up the aisle with us, so we'll have to wait a fair few years for that."

Well, we weren't expecting this to come out on the red carpet tonight.

Suranne Jones, of Doctor Foster fame, has very publicly revealed she is pregnant.

The actress, who married in a secret ceremony last year to Laurence Akers, stepped out on the red carpet with a full and beautiful baby bump.

The Corrie alum is up for the Best Drama Performance at tonight's National Television Awards in London. 

We're hoping she wins, but if not, she sure made a stunning baby bump debut.

In probably the most surprising pregnancy of the year (or century), Georgia Salpa has welcomed two gorgeous baby boys into the world.

Only six months after her Italian wedding, Georgia released a statement on Twitter today:

“Delighted with the arrival of twin boys, the most special, perfect little babies and we are so in love,” she posted on the social networking site.

Mrs Penna, the name she took after her marriage, was spotted out in London last week, wheeling around a baby buggy.

It is said that her mother and sister have travelled to the UK in order to be with the new mum and her babies before Christmas.

Reports in a national newspaper this morning wrongly claimed that her newborn sons had been adopted in recent weeks, but Georgia immediately shut down those rumours.

“They are not adopted. I won’t be posting any photos of them on social media as I’d like to keep them private."

Kimmy K has been known to wear some of the most controversial pregnancy outfits during her two pregnancies – but now it's Coco Austin's turn to get people talking.

The model has never been shy about showing off her curves and being pregnany certainly hasn't change that. 

The 36-year-old posed in a revealing leopard print bra and yoga pants for an Instagram snap she posted yesterday.

Michelle Keegan has finally opened up about trying to get pregnant with her husband, Mark Wright.

The former Corrie actress admitted she "wasn't bothered" when people asked when she would be having children, reports OK Online.

Michelle also said that she found the speculation of her being pregnant "funny" when she was spotted wearing baggy clothes.

Speaking to Star Magazine, Ms Keegan revealed that she would have a family with her husband "when the time was right."

"It doesn't bother me. It's the next natural step to happen after getting married."

"I find it funny though when I wear a baggy top and everyone goes, 'Oh, she's pregnant!"

"It will happen when it happens. And when it does it will be the right time for us."

Only last week, Michelle revealed her new a/w line for Lipsy and it was GORGEOUS.

Now 32 weeks into her first pregnancy, there's no doubt that model Coco Austin looks incredible.

In fact, as proven by a load of recent photographs, the star – whose birth-name is Nicole Marrow – hardly looks like she's expecting at all. 

Taking to Instagram last night while deciding on an outfit for the evening, the wife of rapper and actor Ice T donned not one but THREE different dresses for the camera.

And suffice to say that none are typical of maternity wear for a women seven months gone. 

The first snap – arguably the most striking – shows the 36-year-old in a sweeping sheer black, polka dot gown. 

Underneath she wore high-waisted pants, though strategically-placed dots meant she could go braless. 

"Feeling my inner Lady Gaga in this dress," she said.

Her second option was also full-length: a gold sparkly number that boasted a seriously low-cut neckline and long sleeves. 

"Another option… Picture does not give this dress justice… it's so sparkly," she explained in the accompanying caption.

Finally, Coco put on a dramatic lace and tulle dress – complete with a sweeping neckline and (quelle surprise) lots of décolletage.

"Ok now I'm just having fun… Playing dress-up is such a girlie thing to do!" she told her fans.

Married for 13 years, she and Ice T, 57, are expecting their first child together, a girl whom they have said they will name Chanel, before the end of the year.

He already has two children – a daughter and a son – from previous relationships.

She's now a mother-of-two – a prince and a princess – who both arrived within less than two years of one another. 

And although little Charlotte is not yet six months' of age, excited news organisations in the US are convinced that royal baby No.3 is ALREADY en route.

Yes, if Stateside rumour is to be believed, Duchess Kate is now pregnant, with the little bundle of regal joy arriving next spring.

The fact that she was seen holding aloft glasses of champagne at the recent royal banquet in Buckingham Palace – not to mention that on the same occasion her bespoke Jenny Packham dress showed no hint of a baby bump – seems to have been disregarded.

Instead, the covers of more than one glossy magazine this week declare that the wife of Prince William is very much expecting. 

"It seems Kate Middleton, 33, and Prince William, 33, wasted no time getting back into the swing of things," declares one popular US site.

Meanwhile, Life & Style magazine, which carries the story on its front-page this week, says: “They’re expecting! It happened far quicker than they expected – they’d just started trying for another child. But William and Kate are so excited".

That publication furthermore says: "Friends are saying the baby will arrive around June. They say Kate is at the very beginning of her pregnancy and won’t show any sign of a bump until next year. She still looks extremely slim." 

And as far back as early September, Star magazine was also stating that the Duchess was "in the early stages of pregnancy with baby number three". It added that the new addition to the Cambridge family is due "in late April or early May, so she’ll likely be showing by the New Year".

Even earlier in the summer, some US outlets reported absolutely that Kate was eager to have three children by the time she turned 35: as she celebrates her 34th birthday in January, it seemed she was eager to get a move on.

The rumour may all, of course, seem a little far-fetched, but Wills himself did say in the aftermath of Charlotte's arrival that a third Cambridge child was certainly possible.

In an interview to mark his first day as an air ambulance pilot, the prince spoke of family-life. When the interviewer playfully hinted at another baba, the second-in-line to the British throne laughed: "We've only just had the second one!"

Though he then added with a smile, "but you never know what's going to happen in the future."

They married in a gorgeous ceremony in Stockholm in June… and now Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia have confirmed that she is pregnant. Hurrah!

Taking to Facebook to make the official announcement, the pair wrote that their little bundle of joy is expected to arrive in April of next year – which means only one thing: honeymoon baby! 

"We are so happy and excited to announce that we are expecting our first child," they wrote in a statement.

"We are very much looking forward to it."

The Swedish royal palace also revealed on Facebook that the two have not made any alterations to their planned public appearances schedule in light of the happy news.

Sofia, 30, and Carl-Philip, 36, dated for five years before walking down the aisle in June and live together in the upmarket Djurgården district of Stockholm.

He is the second child of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, while she is from a non-aristocratic background. 

And it will certainly be a busy time for royal grandparents Carl and Silvia: the prince's elder sister, Princess Victoria, 38, is also currently pregnant and due to give birth to her second child in March.

Meanwhile, youngest child Princess Madeleine, 33, already has two children – most recently giving birth in June.

Candice, who plays Caroline Forbes on the hit TV show The Vampire Diaries, announced she is pregnant in the best way possible. 

The actress shared the beautiful snap of herself over the weekend. In the picture she is surrounded by husband, Joe King and her two step-daughters Ava and Elise.

Joe, who is part of the band The Fray, wore a matching white T-shirt that had "SUPERDAD" written on it.

This is Candice's first marriage and baby, but it's King's second marriage and the new addition will be his third child.

In an interview with C Magazine Kim Kardashian has revealed how hard she took the criticism she received during her first pregnancy.

The reality star bore the brunt of a lot of unfair comments about her weight gain in her last pregnancy, even though most of those extra pounds were due to preeclampsia, a condition characterised by high blood pressure and fluid retention.

"Everyone would make fun of [me], not understanding that I had this condition," she says.

The 34-year-old said all of this was extremely hurtful during her last pregnancy and it affected how much she wanted to be photographed being out and about. 

"Before I was always smiling, and so into being out and about. After I had the baby, I was like, these are the same people that made fun of me, and posted the stories that were so awful, calling me fat for something I couldn’t control. I don’t want to smile for them. I don’t want to be out."

Despite the hurtful comments, Kim was keen to conceive again, but conceiving a second time proved extremely tough. One complication in particular which made the process difficult was placenta accreta, a condition which required a few minor operations. 

The mother of one, who is expecting her second child at the end of this year, said she went to great lengths in the hope of becoming pregnant for a second time but that it was an extremely long road. 

"I would go to the doctor in Beverly Hills every day at five in the morning to get tested to see if I was ovulating. I was trying everything: I did acupuncture and got a nutritionist to eat healthier, thinking that was an issue."

Kim went on to say that constantly trying so hard to get pregnant may have ruined the excitement a bit saying: "It takes the fun out of it. I’m like, 'I’m ovulating, get home now!' He’d be like, 'Wait, I’m in the studio.'”

Kim then explained that she may have to go as far as having her uterus removed following the birth of her second child. 

"Well, they think I’ll have placenta accreta again, so if the placenta grows a little bit deeper than it did last time, then they are prepared to have my uterus removed, which is a little scary for me. I think we’re just gonna go day by day, see how overwhelming it is, and see how the delivery goes."

Wishing her all the best.

After being plagued with complications during her first pregnancy in 2013, Kim Kardashian has appeared incredibly slim and healthy this time around.

Indeed, her physique has even prompted rumour that she's faking her pregnancy – something she totally shot done when she posted a naked selfie last week.

However, now around the five-month mark, it's apparent that Ms Kardashian is blooming… and her bump is suddenly MUCH more apparent. 

Posing up with Peter Dundas, creative director of Roberto Cavalli, with whom she was lunching with in LA yesterday, the reality TV star for the first time happily showed off her changing shape.

Kim is due on a date sometime in December and is expecting a boy – a little brother for North, two.

On Twitter just last week, the wife of Kanye West had said: "Everyone's body is different, every pregnancy is very different.

"I've learned to love my body at every stage! I'm going to get even bigger & that's beautiful too! I'm blessed to even be pregnant!

"& luckier to not have preeclampsia so far, so I don't have the swelling issue!"

Mark Zuckerberg and Dr Priscilla Chan are expecting their first child together, he announced today – on Facebook, of course.

The baby, a girl, will arrive later this year. 

In a picture which accompanied the online post, Mark and a radiant Priscilla can be seen standing alongside their beloved pup, a Hungarian sheepdog named Beast.

Mr Zuckerberg, one of the world's richest men with a net worth of €42.5bn, also opened up about Priscilla's three heartbreaking miscarriages. 

"We've been trying to have a child for a couple of years and have had three miscarriages along the way," he admitted,

In a candid confession, the 31-year-old continued: "You feel so hopeful when you learn you're going to have a child. You start imagining who they'll become and dreaming of hopes for their future.

"You start making plans, and then they're gone. It's a lonely experience.

"Most people don't discuss miscarriages because you worry your problems will distance you or reflect upon you – as if you're defective or did something to cause this. So you struggle on your own."

However, Mark added that when he began to open up about their experiences to friends and family, he realised they were far from alone. And thankfully, he also learned that "nearly all" went on to have "healthy children after all".

Dr Chan, 30, is a qualified doctor who is currently training to become a paediatrician. She is fluent in three languages – English, Spanish, and Cantonese.

"Our good news is that our pregnancy is now far enough along that the risk of loss is very low and we are very hopeful," the Facebook CEO also said. 

"Cilla and our child are both healthy, I'm extremely excited to meet her and our dog Beast has no idea what's coming.

"In our ultrasound, she even gave me a thumbs up 'like' with her hand, so I'm already convinced she takes after me."

He concluded with: "We're looking forward to welcoming her into the world and sharing more soon when she's ready to come out and meet everyone!"

The couple met as Harvard classmates – queuing for the bathroom at a fraternity party – and dated for nearly a decade before their May 2012 wedding.
