English Premier League club West Ham United striker Andy Carroll announced fiancee Billi Mucklow's pregnancy on social networking site Twitter.
Carroll Thursday tweeted using baby and bottle emoticons and attached an Instagram photo of the pair as Mucklow wore a red sweater that read, "Making my little pudding".
Mucklow, a former 'The Only Way Is Essex (often abbreviated as TOWIE)' star which is a BAFTA award-winning 'scripted reality' television soap opera based in Essex, then uploaded her own photo on Boxing Day writing "Me, AC and Bump".
The England international also gave his fiancee her very own secret beauty salon as a Christmas present, which she apparently had no idea was in her new home.
Mucklow took to Instagram to show off the parlour called 'Billutifuls', and wrote: "Biggest shock of my life. Secret key, lead to a secret room to my new house!"
"My very own salon called 'Billutifuls". I love you so much @andytcarroll I'm one lucky girl #mirrormirroronthewall."
After recovering from an ankle injury, Carroll has scored three goals in two home games this season in the league.
