The 38-year-old actress has confirmed she's expecting her first child with her husband Jason Carrion.
The brunette beauty - who previously played Jo Stiles in 'Emmerdale', but quit showbiz in recent years - told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "I now know what ‘happy ever after’ feels like.
"To have such a beautiful life here and be blessed with the most incredible husband and our little baba on the way … my mum’s already knitting for England.
"My husband is driving round at all hours getting me pizza and cookies. We’re in a bubble of excitement."
Roxanne and her husband tied the knot in January last year, and the actress is loving her new life in New York City.
She said: "Everyone I now have around me brings out the best in me. It’s true that happiness is the greatest success. I’m just very grateful for such a beautiful chapter."
Last year, meanwhile, Roxanne admitted she didn't think she would ever "smile again" after her controversial 'Celebrity Big Brother' stint.
However, the actress - who was booted off the show in 2018 after she wrongly accused fellow housemate Ryan Thomas of assaulting her - now feels "bulletproof", having previously claimed to be the "most hated woman in Britain".
She said: "It all fell through for me and I never thought I'd smile again or leave my house without my hood up. It's taken a long time and a lot of strength, but I've rebooted my life and I think so much more clearly.
"I think taking a step away from showbiz has been the biggest saving grace for me as it's brought better people into my life and given me a healthier perspective on what's important.
"Before, that would have floored me, but now I'm bulletproof. I used to feel sick or cry but now I feel sorry for those people who still target me. They must be struggling to carry that much hostility."
