A source told The Sun: “This is the news everyone wanted. Ant and Anne-Marie are beyond delighted. “It’s no secret that Ant has always wanted children, but that it may never happen for him was something he had, sadly, come to terms with. “When they found out last year, they were absolutely delighted, but obviously kept the news quiet for as long as possible. “To be having a child two years short of his 50th birthday, with the love of his life, is the stuff of dreams for Ant. “He’s already a wonderful, doting father to Anne-Marie’s kids, and together they’re going to be brilliant parents to this latest addition to the family.” The news comes three years after the couple got married at St Michael’s Church in Heckfield, Hampshire.
