It will be a big change but such an exciting one. It's something we've wanted together for ages, and we are both really happy - Steve is absolutely beside himself.
The couple tied their knot in September 2016 and revealed that Glover was expecting before Christmas but due to their busy schedule they did not open about the pregnancy earlier.
In March 2017, Backshall informed reporters that the couple was not ready to start a family so soon after their wedding. He further added they were waiting for few months or possibly a year before they decide to further expand a family.
