A source close to the couple told The Sun Online:
“Jeremy and Katie are ecstatic. The baby marks a brand new chapter in their lives.
“They are both so excited and can’t wait to welcome their little son or daughter. Jeremy has found someone that he really loves and wants to be with forever. They can’t wait to become parents and start a family together.

The couple – who have been together for more than a year – shared a number of images with pals, including one of their pet pooch Patsy sitting in front of a black board which contained the message:
“Mum and dad are getting me a human for Christmas.”
It comes just days after the 29-year-old model admitted he feels “sick” when he looks back at his past mistakes, as he opened up about his problems with cocaine abuse, describing the Class A drug as “the devil”.
He said:
“I feel sick when I look back at myself, I’m so ashamed. I was p***ing money up against the wall to get that buzz. I was only focused on was good looking women and drink.
“Then I was offered cocaine when I was 20 at a party and it took over. I remember the feeling it gave me, it was a buzz.
“I didn’t even start drinking until I was 18 as I was so into my football and fitness but cocaine was easy to fall into as it was everywhere – I didn’t have to go to any lengths to get it as it was so cheap and easy to get. I started using it more and more.”
