Stacey Solomon 's fans are certain they've figured out the sex of the star's unborn baby due to be born very soon.
The Loose Women presenter, 33, and husband Joe Swash surprised people at the end of last month when they announced the news they are expecting their third child together - with their latest bundle of joy due to arrive in a matter of weeks.
During a recent catch up Q&A with her Instagram followers, Stacey cleared up the confusion about how many months she went before realising she was pregnant – admitting she did find out late but she and Joe also wanted to keep the news private for a while.
The mum-of-four is yet to officially reveal the sex of her unborn baby, but eagle-eyed fans of the former X Factor finalist think they've figured out the gender of the star's fifth child thanks to an Instagram blunder.
Stacey took to social media on Monday to share a video of her latest scan after attending a routine appointment, and seemingly dropped a huge hint regarding whether she is expecting another little girl or boy.
