Gary Lucy has excitedly announced the gender of his baby with ex-girlfriend – but the mum-to-be is currently keeping mum.Â
The former couple announced that they were in February, but split shortly after.Â
Since then, public tensions between the two have mounted with Gary, 40, suggesting the relationship ended due to his reluctance to move to Scotland, where Laura primarily lives, as he wanted to be close to his other children from previous relationships.
However, Laura later denied this was the case and explained she was happy for Gary to split his time between their two hometowns, with him residing in Essex.
In a fresh update on the pregnancy journey, Gary has now announced that he’s expecting a baby girl with the reality star.
In an Instagram post, the Hollyoaks actor shared a photo of a pink crown with ‘daddy’s girl’ written underneath.
It also featured a baby scan and the message: ‘For everyone that’s been asking… let’s hope she inherits her Mummys looks,’ hinting that he’s on good terms with Laura.
Gary also told his followers: ‘Thanks for all the lovely messages from everyone… so excited to meet my little baby bear soon!’
Laura hasn’t addressed the baby’s gender on her social media since Gary made the announcement.
In recent weeks, the Love Island star has been sunning herself on holiday in the Maldives after jetting off for a getaway at the luxury Ayada resort.
