WATCH: Rachael shows off her baby bump 

The former winner of Australia’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! confirmed the news last night, less than a week after Rachael showed off her growing baby bump at the Attitude Awards in London. 

“They’re over the moon to be expecting again. It’s been exciting news for all the family,” a source close to the couple told the Daily Mail

The announcement of baby number four may come as a surprise to fans of the Top Gear host— whose real name is Andrew— seeing as he said in 2016 that they had no plans to expand their brood any further!  

“We thought about it. I originally wanted five but you have three and that felt like enough. I couldn’t go back to the nappy stage now.”

The ex-English cricketer and his wife of 15 years— who are already parents to Holly, 15, Corey, 13, and Rocky, 11— met at the Edgbaston cricket ground in 2002 when Rachael was promoting her events company, Strawbery Promotions. After three years of dating they tied the knot on March 5, 2005, at the Pavilion Road Hotel in Knightsbridge, London.

Earlier this year the 41-year-old walked away from a car crash unharmed on the same track that almost cost former Top Gear host Richard Hammond his life. Filming a race for the series, Freddie later said it “looked more ridiculous and dangerous” in TV. 

“I go to great lengths to make sure I do well in Top Gear drag races but, on this occasion, I went a few lengths too far,” he said. “I am absolutely fine have been back filming.”
