Abbey Clancy is pregnant with her second child.

The model and former Strictly Come Dancing champion, 28, announced on Twitter that she and her footballer husband Peter Crouch are set to become parents again.

The couple married in 2011 and already have a three-year-old daughter, Sophia.

Abbey won BBC One show Strictly Come Dancing with Aljaz Skorjanec in 2013.

She later dismissed speculation about the pair’s chemistry, saying: “I know what went on and he knows what went on, so it’s not like that, you’re just learning to dance.”

She has hailed Peter as the perfect father – but admitted that he does not always get it right.

“For my engagement he got the date of our engagement engraved into the ring. I was like, ‘What’s that?’ and he was like, ‘when we got engaged’. But it wasn’t,” she said. “He tries!”
