Lottie Tomlinson and Lewis Burton have revealed the gender of their baby in a sweet video.
The couple announced they are expecting their first child together on Friday, after over a year of dating.
On Sunday, Lottie shared a video on Instagram of her and Lewis pulling open a confetti canyon which shot out blue confetti – revealing they are expecting a baby boy.
The 23-year-old captioned the clip: “our little baby….. 🤍”
Lottie, who is due to give birth in August, recently revealed that the pregnancy was not planned.
In an Instagram Q&A, the model explained: “I didn’t ever think I’d be pregnant! I was late on my period and I thought I’d just rule it out by doing a test… then I see this little special surprise.”

When asked how she told Lewis, the influencer confessed: “I ran into the bedroom screaming that I was pregnant!”
“He’s[Lewis] so excited. He’s gonna be the best dad, he’s been an amazing support to me so far,” she added.
Talking about her first trimester, Lottie also told fans: “I’ve been feeling really good. I’m lucky I haven’t had any sickness, been a little extra tired but I’m coming through that now I’m in my second trimester.”

“I just feel so full of love and its the most amazing feeling growing my baby. I’ve been excited about doing this for so long as I can remember so I’m just enjoying every minute of it,” she added.
Lottie and Lewis confirmed their shock romance in August 2020, after they were papped kissing in Ibiza.
The news shocked fans, as it came just six months after Lewis’ ex Caroline Flack died by suicide.
Sources previously claimed Lottie and Lewis bonded over their grief, after meeting at a house party hosted by Caroline’s close friend Lou Teasdale that May.
Lewis lost Caroline in February, and Lottie has had to deal with the death of her sister and mother in recent years.
Lottie’s 18-year-old sister Félicité died following an accidental drug overdose in 2019, less than three years after she lost her mother Johannah to cancer.
A source previously told MailOnline: “Lewis and Lottie have grown close after spending time together at a party at Lou’s house.”
“They have been meeting up in secret for weeks but their newfound friendship hasn’t gone unnoticed by mutual pals.”
“Not all of Caroline’s friends are happy with how the situation appears to be developing but can understand that both Lottie and Lewis have been there for each other as a shoulder to cry on.”
On February 15, 2020, Caroline was found dead at her flat in London, months after she was arrested for allegedly assaulting Lewis.
Following an inquest into her death, a coroner ruled that the TV presenter took her own life after she was told she would face trial for the alleged assault – despite the fact that Lewis didn’t want to press charges.
