Good Morning Britain’ s Richard Madeley was happy to be able to proudly speak about the latest addition to his family – but he confessed he accidentally slipped up previously.
On Tuesday’s episode of GMB, James Haskell appeared on the ITV show to discuss his work on podcasts and his upcoming book, but he dropped some special news before wrapping up.
He told viewers that he and Chloe are expecting a baby girl, and on Wednesday morning, Richard thanked fans of the show for all the lovely well-wishes.
Richard said: “Before we go on, can I just say a huge thank you to all of you who sent such really lovely messages yesterday after we announced the impending birth of my fifth, fourth is it? Fourth grandchild, a daughter.

“James Haskell, Chloe’s husband, was here and he announced it. You all flooded in with just lovely comments.”
The host said it was so nice to celebrate the news and praised her for doing a great job at “disguising the bump”, considering how many snaps she takes on Instagram.
However, Richard confessed he did actually drop a huge hint that she was pregnant before she was ready to tell anyone.
He said: “Well I nearly gave it away. When she was about two-and-a-half months pregnant, she was doing a podcast at home, she’d come home for a couple of days.

“She was doing a podcast and I didn’t know, and I walked in. She said, ‘Dad, I’m just going something here,’ and I didn’t know we were live. I said, ‘Oh, is it your hormones?'”
Richard confessed that some people picked up on it and started questioning if Chloe was pregnant.
Luckily, it did blow over and the pregnancy announcement still came as a surprise to many people.

People immediately rushed to her comments, including fellow celebs, with Vicky Pattison writing: “Awww congratulationns beautiful,” while Catherine Tyldesley wrote: “Ahhh congratulations you two!!! Gorgeous news.”
Chloe and James’ happy news will mean the pair will welcome their first child together.
