Neil Jones, 41, and his girlfriend Chyna Mills, 24, have been dating for over a year and announced the news they were expecting their first child together earlier this year.
The Strictly Come Dancing pro and the Love Island star have now shared the baby's gender in a new interview.
The excited parents-to-be revealed they will soon be welcoming a baby girl as Neil's co-star's also offered a helping hand.
The parents shared the news on-stage during a rehearsal for the Strictly Come Dancing: The Professionals tour.
The pair revealed their unborn child's gender by cutting into a specially-made cake.

The couple were helped by Neil's Strictly co-stars including, Dianne Buswell, Gorka Marquez, Vito Coppola, Jowita Przystal, Karen Hauer, Carlos Gu, Nikitia Kumzin and Nancy Xu.
Speaking to HELLO! magazine, Neil said: “They were as thrilled as us. They’d been trying to guess if we were expecting a girl or a boy, and for the HELLO! photoshoot the girls wore pink or blue eyeshadow, depending on what they thought."
Chyna also detailed her pregnancy cravings were Krispy Kremes despite suffering "horrendous" morning sickness.
The Strictly pro also cheekily shared he believed his unborn will be just like her mother after a nurse joked the baby was "stubborn" after refusing to turn around during a pregnancy scan.
Neil also revealed he has been issued a warning by his co-stars who said the professional dancer will no longer get any sleep.
He added: "People also keep warning me I won’t get any sleep. As a dancer I’m used to that!”
Neil found Chyna on Instagram after her exit from the villa and reached out to the social media star.
The pair then met in person when they attended the same event together.
Their romance was soon confirmed when they headed on a trip to Paris together in August and shared photos on their Instagram pages and are now engaged to be married.
Chyna was previously coupled up with Jay Younger during her short stint on Love Island last year, but the pair ended up just being friends with the pair's relationship failing to blossom.
It comes years after Neil's previous relationship with South American dancer Luisa Eusse came to an end.
Neil was previously married to his Strictly co-star Katya Jones but the pair called it quits in 2019.
