Liz, who married husband Peter Cho in 2023, wrote: “I started to record a video of me just telling you but I got too emotional so I thought I’d just hide behind this little announcement instead. I just can’t believe we’re here.”
“So many have been through exactly what I went through and worse. I want to share what I can and add my voice and ears to those who already help others understand or deal with all that comes with IVF and loss after so much hope.”
She went on: “I’ve been a part of some beautifully supportive communities. I’m so grateful. I am so grateful!”.

In the video, Liz then stood up and turned sideways to reveal her growing baby bump. Elated, she exclaimed: “I’m pregnant!” then caressed her bump and declared: “We feel like we’ve been given the world!”

“Happy tears I promise! Congratulations, so so happy for you,” joined in another joyous fan as Atomic Kitten’s Natasha Hamilton penned: “Literally couldn’t be any happier for you both! After all you’ve been through, this little miracle is everything.”
