She tweeted:
“Justin and I are so happy to let you all know we are having a baby!!! Couldn’t wait to share our lovely news with you all”.
The news drew a string of congratulatory messages, with Emma Bunton saying:
“Amazing news, so excited for you. Lots of special times ahead”.

“Another baby aloud on the way! Congrats @KimberleyJWalsh and her lovely fella Justin!!”

Kimberley shot to fame with her girlband back in 2002 via TV show Popstars: The Rivals. They split almost one year ago after a decade in the business, and Kimberley released a solo album – Centre Stage – which edged into the UK Top 20.
She also starred in Shrek: The Musical on London’s West End.
