According to Vogue, the former Strictly contestant said the couple had gone through two rounds of unsuccessful IVF, with 23 year old Baig, suffering a miscarriage. She is now in her second trimester.

Nicola Adams also opened up about her concerns about trying to conceive as a same-sex couple.

People need to be educated about this process so that they’re not going into it completely blind. The information is out there but we really had to dig for it.”
