Peter Andre and pregnant wife Emily appeared on Thursday’s Loose Women to talk about their family and upcoming third child together in a sweet interview

Peter Andre and pregnant wife Emily’s baby’s gender was ‘revealed’ in a fun segment on Thursday’s Loose Women.

The Mysterious Girl singer, 50, and doctor, 34, who have been married since 2015, announced the happy news last year they are expecting baby number three. When Emily’s baby is born, Peter will become a dad for the fifth time. Peter already shares two children – 18-year-old Junior and 16-year-old Princess – with ex-wife Katie Price and two children with Emily – nine-year-old Amelia and Theo, six.

Appearing on Thursday’s Loose Women, the couple revealed they are keeping their baby’s gender a surprise. Emily said she has no preference of whether their child is a girl or boy but Peter admitted he is secretly hoping for a baby boy although he is lucky to have “both” already.

Panellist Nadia Sawalha then used some old wives tales and tricks to ‘work out’ the baby’s gender ahead of birth. Examining Emily’s bump and discussing her symptoms, Emily told Nadia: “I’ve been really sick this time, that’s been the worst bit!” to which Nadia pointed out: “That means a boy!”

Nadia then performed the gender ring test on Emily’s bump, where you tie a piece of string onto a ring and place it over a baby bump. If the ring swings back and forth, it supposedly means you’re having a boy whereas if the ring goes around in a circle, you’re supposedly having a girl.

After examining the direction of the ring, Nadia declared: “It’s a boy, back and forth, it’s a boy!” The Loose Women stars then declared: “It’s official, it’s a boy… you heard it here first!” while Nadia added: “There’s no more surprises now!”

However, of course, these are just old wives tales and the couple won’t officially know the gender of their baby until its birth with Emily due in just a few weeks.

Asked about baby names, the couple admitted they have some gender neutral monikers they like the sound of such as Tony, Jamie and even Frankie – with the latter suggested by panellist Frankie Bridge.
