JLS star JB Gill expecting second child with wife Chloe
The couple already have a three-year-old son.
Former JLS singer JB Gill has announced he is expecting his second child with wife Chloe.
The couple are already parents to son Ace, three.
He told Hello! magazine: “Because we know people who have had complications, we were cautious to say anything before now.
“In our line of work, you never have the job until you’re on that stage and I guess we’ve approached this the same way – we wanted to make sure we were firmly on that stage.”
Chloe added they have only recently felt ready to have a second child after her difficult first delivery, when the umbilical cord was wrapped twice around the baby’s neck.
“But I will admit that, after what I went through having him, I was also really nervous about getting pregnant again. I knew I needed to wait until, mentally, I was sure I was ready. Even today, the fears are there.”
She added that Ace was the first to predict that she was pregnant, telling the magazine: “We were out shopping and I was pushing Ace around in his pushchair when he suddenly looked up at me and said, ‘Mummy, we need to get some clothes for my sister.’
“I said to him, ‘But you don’t have a sister’. His face went all serious and he went, ‘I do, Mummy – in your tummy’. When I told J, we were like, ‘Whoa!’”
Gill said: “And whilst we’ve currently got no plans to find out, I’m tempted to go with his intuition.
“Ace kisses Chloe’s tummy and says to the baby, ‘Come soon!’ It’s very sweet.”
