TOWIE star Lauren Pope has announced she is expecting her first child with long-term boyfriend Tony Keterman.
The 37-year-old reality star broke the news over Instagram, sharing a trio of polaroid pictures hinting at the pregnancy.
Captioned “pure happiness”, Lauren made it clear the parents-to-be are chuffed to watch their family grow.
In one picture, Tony could be seen kissing her blossoming baby bump, while in another, she cradled her growing tummy.
A third polaroid showed the baby’s ultrasound – though its gender has yet to be revealed.
As soon as the post was uploaded to her feed, Lauren’s reality TV pals piled the comment section high with words of congratulations.
TOWIE’s Clelia Theodorou gushed: ” Ahhhh congratulations!!!”
While her co-star Ferne McCann added: “ Oh wow congrats babe this is such wonderful news.”
In the past, Lauren has spoken out about wanting to become a mum, saying: “I want to meet someone and have children, sooner than in the next five years.”

Lauren rose to fame on the hit ITV reality show The Only Way Is Essex, though she left the series last March in a bid to spend more time with her new beau.
Last December, the DJ celebrated her one-year anniversary with 33-year-old finance guru Tony.
Discussing their romance, a source reportedly told The Sun: “Lauren and Tony met a couple of months ago after he approached her on social media and asked her out.
“They hit it off straight away. They’re head over heels and have just had a really romantic time in Thailand.
“He’s a millionaire, and not interested in being famous. He’s really into Lauren and this relationship feels different to previous relationships for her as he’s in his thirties and isn’t into drama.”
Congratulations Lauren and Tony!
