Jennie McAlpine fell pregnant in a post-jungle lovemaking session after being away from her husband for three weeks during her ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ stint.
The ‘Coronation Street’ actress has admitted some of her pals have "suggested" she and her hubby Chris Farr conceived their forthcoming baby – who will be a brother or sister to their three-year-old son Albert – in a romantic reunion Down Under.
She said: "It’s quite quick after. A few people have suggested that."
Jennie – who confirmed her pregnancy over the weekend – is due to give birth to her second child in October and are planning to let their son have a hand in their new tot’s moniker, but she isn’t convinced about naming their little one after ‘PAW Patrol’ characters.
She said: "We said, would you like a brother or sister, luckily he said, ‘Yes.’
"Then he said, ‘Well, what am I going to call it?’ So he thinks he’s got the job of the name.
"At the moment it might be called Chase and Marshall after ‘PAW Patrol’ characters.
"So we’ll have to see. He can maybe be involved a little bit, maybe we’ll give him a choice."
Jennie – who plays Fiz Stape in the soap – admitted her and Chris’ child could be named after a ‘Corrie’ character.
Speaking on ITV’s ‘Lorraine’, she added: "Probably named after a ‘Coronation Street’ character, like Albert was.
"Not on purpose, but all the gorgeous names, they’ve all been in ‘Coronation Street’. So probably that."
Jennie took to Twitter on Sunday (15.04.18) to announce she is expecting a second child.
She wrote on Twitter: "We’ve got a bit of news. Pur baby boy is going to be a big brother later this year. We can’t wait to meet you precious one x …
"Thanks for all your lovely messages. Obviously my baby brain is in full force again. Our baby boy. Not pur. Sorry to people who got confused it was about the cat x (sic)"
