Five months pregnant Danielle Lloyd cradles her stomach as she tweets 'I'm soooo happpy!'

Thrilled: A smiling Danielle Lloyd cradles her stomach on holiday with her family in Dubai last week


After being diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome Danielle Lloyd was told she would never give birth to a baby of her own.

So as the grinning glamour model cradled her growing stomach on a beach in Dubai, her excitement was obvious.

The Celebrity Big Brother star, 26, is five months pregnant, but only confirmed the news last night, tweeting: 'I'm soooo happy.'

She and footballer fiancé Jamie O'Hara are expecting their first child in July.

O'Hara also confirmed the news via his Twitter page, writing: 'Me and Danielle can confirm that we are having a baby, its due in July and were soooo happy, I'm gonna be a daddy.'

His fiancé was quick to join him, writing: 'I am soooooo happy too Jamie, had nearly 20 weeks of keeping silent now the world can know. Love u soooooo much xxx'
The couple's news comes just three months after they announced their engagement following a whirlwind romance.


Very excited: Danielle's first child with fiancé Jamie O'Hara is due in July


Mother to be: Danielle had been told she couldn't have a child, after being diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome


The WAG confirmed she was expecting after she was photographed in London last week with a noticeable baby bump.

A statement from Lloyd's spokesman Andy Varley said: 'I am pleased to confirm that Danielle Lloyd and Jamie O'Hara are expecting their first child.

'Danielle is due to give birth at the end of July and is very excited but slightly nervous at the prospect of becoming a mum.

'Danielle was overjoyed with the news that she was expecting.

'Having been a sufferer of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, she was once told that she would never be able to have children, which makes the news even more exciting.'

Wedding plans: Lloyd and her fiancé Jamie O'Hara have set their wedding date for June 2011


The spokesman also confirmed the couple have also set a date for their wedding for June 18 next year.

The couple are planning 'the biggest wedding you can think of' at a location 'down south', but Scouse Lloyd said she would also like a blessing at Liverpool Cathedral.

Last month, Lloyd was spotted getting ideas for her nuptials at the UK Wedding Show at the ExCel centre in London.

Lloyd and Portsmouth player O'Hara, 23, officially started dating on April 18 last year after meeting at their local gym in Essex.

The couple grew closer after Lloyd was attacked in a London nightclub last May and he supported her during her recovery from the injuries sustained.

In a recent interview, Lloyd said she couldn't wait to become Mrs O'Hara and wanted to start a family.

She said: 'We definitely want kids. We are really happy and a baby would be perfect.'

The couple announced their engagement in December after O'Hara got down on one knee during a trip to Paris.

O'Hara - who is currently on loan to Portsmouth from Tottenham Hotspurs - is the third Spurs player Lloyd has dated in recent years.

She leapt to fame as the girlfriend of England and retired Spurs player Teddy Sheringham in 2006, who she met while he was a judge on the Miss Great Britain panel.

The pair insisted their relationship didn't start until after the beauty pageant and Lloyd claimed it was her Playboy shoot that contributed to her later being stripped of the title.

Sheringham famously dumped Lloyd after her controversial appearance on Celebrity Big Brother, in which she, Jade Goody and Jo O'Meara were accused of racist bullying of the Indian actress Shilpa Shetty.

In 2007, she went on to date Birmingham City striker Marcus Bent, before a brief two-month romance with Spurs striker Jermain Defoe in early 2008.
