“WE’RE HAVING BABY NUMBER THREE!”

This morning, Laura Byrne and Matty J have officially announced that they’re expecting their third child.

The two met on season five of The Bachelor Australia in 2017, and are now parents already to daughters Marlie-Mae and Lola.

Laura announced the news first on Life Uncut, sharing her excitement with her co-hosts.

“The big news is, so you guys know that Matt and I have been talking a lot about whether or not we were going to have baby number three…and it turns out WE’RE HAVING BABY NUMBER THREE!” Laura said.

“It turns out for a very short period Matt and I got on the same page on whether we wanted [a third].”

“I’m 18 weeks pregnant everyone. Even Matt was shocked because he thought it was 13 weeks... I've been keeping a little secret for quite some time.”

“F*ck off, is that a line?

According to Laura, this ‘very short period’ actually came prior to her husband’s appearance on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! earlier this year, in which he was a finalist.

“You all know that Matt went in the jungle, and he was doing I'm A Celebrity. He had just left, and it was two days after his phone had been taken away from him, and he was non-contactable,” she said.

“One of my girlfriends was like, ‘wouldn't it be funny if you found out you were pregnant when he's in there?’ She didn't really know that we were trying. And I was like, ‘Ah, that's actually a possibility’ and I went and bought a four pack of pregnancy tests, and I went home, and my sister-in-law, Kate, and my mother-in-law were downstairs taking care of the kids. We were going to have dinner together, and I just so casually and so confident that I wasn't pregnant, walked up to the bathroom, peed on a stick like there was no consequences to my actions.

“I sat there and I was like, doing something and then I looked at the stick and I was like, f*ck off, is that a line? I walked downstairs, and I just said to Kate and Ellie, I was like, guys, ‘Sorry to interrupt you, can I just get your eyes on something? Do you think that this is a double line?’ They both were a bit beside themselves. And then we just had to have dinner that night like everything was normal.”

So, it meant she had to wait a little longer than she’d have liked to break the news.

“I wasn't able to tell Matt for ages. The whole time he was in the jungle, I wasn't able to tell him and then it was really tricky because I didn't want to tell him when it was the finale. I didn't want to tell him as soon as the show [ended], because I don't know if you guys remember, but the show wasn't filmed live this year, so we did the finale over there,” she said.

“Maybe it now makes sense as to why I so desperately wanted his business class seat. I was first trimester vomiting most days and travelling with the two girls by myself, so I was really struggling.

“I didn't want to tell him there [in Africa] and then when we came back, we had to wait for the finale because it hadn't aired on TV yet, and I didn't want to tell him until after all of the excitement and all of the kind of craziness of I'm A Celebrity had ended [because] I didn't want to take away from an experience that he was having and kind of like experience top it with another thing, and I also wanted him to have some time to process what a huge thing he'd just been through.

“I didn't really know what was the right time to tell him... So I knew for two and a half months before I told Matt that I was pregnant.”

“It is a real emotional rollercoaster”

Over on Two Doting Dads, Matty J shared Laura’s excitement about the new addition, due in October, while also opening up about the couple’s struggles with miscarriage.

“I have moments where I'm like trying to envision having a newborn baby in the house. But at the same time, every time I start to imagine it, I put the handbrake up because I'm just waiting for those signs that something might be going wrong,” he shared with co-host Ash.

“It's so hard because when that's taken away from you, there's no greater emotional whiplash than having a miscarriage. You can't help but think what could have been that little baby if it had made it.

“It is a real emotional rollercoaster, and it's hard as well, because when you're in the first 12 weeks we've been conditioned not to tell people. The moments where you talk about it makes it so much easier to make sense of the whole situation. You know, it's you just got to be this passenger on the journey and just hope and pray that you know it's going to turn out all right.”
