The 40-year-old radio DJ - who shot to fame in 2002 when she won the third series of 'Big Brother' - revealed she is expecting her first child with her fiance Martin in September, and now the pair have shared they will be welcoming a baby girl in February.

Posting a video with Beyoncé's hit single 'Run The World (Girls)' playing in the background on Instagram, Kate wrote: "My long term plan to assume total control over the household is nearly complete (Just kidding). We are both delighted to share with you all, that we are having a little girl. Happy Sunday everyone."

In the video, she was seen holding a pair of pink sparkling shoes to reveal she is expecting a girl.

She also posted another snap of her dog Baxter with the shoes, writing:"'You’re joking... What another one? Yes Baxter. Another sister. I can’t wait for the doggies to meet our daughter #ItsAGirl"

The blonde beauty shared the news that she was expecting earlier this year and has "never felt more ready" to welcome a child.

She said at the time: "I have never felt more ready.

"For a lot of my life I did feel pressurised and I wasn't ready. You have to do what's right for you. I think I am going to be a much happier person knowing that I did this when I wanted to."

Kate and Martin decided to try for a baby after their wedding was postponed, despite the reality TV star initially laughing when pals suggested they could have a baby between now and their rebooked nuptials.

She said: "This was completely planned. The wedding got cancelled and I wasn't thinking about a baby at all. But when we re-booked it for the following year, a few of our friends and family said we could have a baby between now and then. I laughed.

"But then I turned 40 in May and suddenly I felt grown up and like I was ready for something and I didn't know what it was.

"We realised we would have to start trying straight away to avoid having a newborn at the wedding. So we did. We gave it one shot. And it happened!"
