Simon Webbe is to be a father again.
Simon Webbe and wife Ayshen
The 41-year-old singer and his wife Ayshen Kemal are expecting their first child together in April, after the pair previously suffered two miscarriages.
Reflecting on their happy news, the Blue band member - who has daughter Alanah, 24, from a previous relationship - said: "It's fantastic, we feel so lucky and grateful.
"Whenever I touch Ayshen's tummy, the baby moves, as if it knows it's me.
"I whisper, 'You're going to be loved so much and I can't wait to meet you.'
"For the last 20 years I've been gallivanting all over the world. But now I'll be concentrating on what's important, and that's family. I want to be that solid, strong guy for Ayshen and our baby."
Ayshen, who will become a mum for the first time, "couldn't be happier" about their baby joy.
She said: "Having a child is all I've ever wanted. Really soon, we'll experience that moment and I'll treasure forever the first time Simon and I gaze down at our baby."
Simon admitted he and Ayshen were "devastated" when they suffered a miscarriage, after she fell pregnant six months after their August 2018 wedding, and the pair "went through the pain again" a year later.
He added to HELLO! magazine: "We were devastated as we said our goodbyes.
"Nobody talks much about miscarriage and the physical and emotional effects it has. When it happened for the second time a year later, we went through the pain again."
The couple later decided to stop trying to fall pregnant, and Simon admitted it then happened "immediately".
