“Monroe S J Bryan you’ve added so much love & happiness to our little family! Me, your daddy & big brother are all besotted with you.”
The couple, who have been dating since 2016, are already parents to their 18-month-old son Mexx.
The actress announced her pregnancy in November during an interview with OK! Magazine.
At the time, Brooke said: “It’s been a hard year for everyone, so it’s some nice news.”

“We wanted another baby and we wanted them close together, so it was just a really warming moment. We were just really happy.”
The 28-year-old also explained that she and Kean have discussed marriage, but they’re not in a rush to walk down the aisle.
“We’ve always spoken about marriage, but I don’t necessarily think a ring on my finger is going to change our relationship,” she said.
“I’m glad that I didn’t get married before having Mexx. We’d be marrying as a family now, and that’s what we’d get married for, to become one. I’d want my babies there.”
