Aston Merrygold and his fiancee Sarah Lou Richards have received an early Christmas present, as they’re expecting their second child.

The former JLS singer announced the exciting news on Sunday with the cutest video of him and Sarah performing a choreographed dance to Pharrell Williams’ hit song Happy outside their home.

After wowing us with their splits, twirls and footwork, their 23-month-old son Grayson runs in holding a photo of the baby scan. The adorable toddler is also wearing a t-shirt which says: ‘I’m going to be a super big brother,’ on the front.

In the video’s caption, Aston wrote: ‘So we’ve got something to tell you ????? and the only way to do it is????… 3 just became 4?❤️????? (I really am the luckiest man alive!!!!!!!!) love from the Merrygold family [sic].’

Their family friend Rochelle Humes is excited to become an aunt again and commented: ‘Our little baby is already dancing in there.’

Former Strictly Come Dancing star Ore Oduba also congratulated the couple and said: ‘Omg love this!!!! Massive congratulations all of youuuuuu, amazing news [sic].’

Speaking to OK! Magazine about their new addition, Sarah said: ‘It was a very pleasant surprise! I felt different for a week, and Aston was away filming. He came back at the end of the week and we took the test and it was a very clear, definite yes.’

Revealing how they shared the news with their close friends, including Aston’s JLS bandmates, the pop star explained: ‘Every December, we try and do a JLS family Christmas thing with all the kids, but it was a bit earlier this year at Rochelle and Marvin’s. Everyone has been asking about the wedding, so we said, oh guys, funnily enough, we’ve got a save the date.’

Sarah, who is due in May, chimed in: ‘We had mocked up these Save the Dates and when they turned them over there was the scan picture! The girls screamed! Rochelle [Humes] and Chloe [Gill] couldn’t believe it.’

It comes just a year after the couple opened up to Metro.co.uk about their fertility plans and pressures they were facing to have another child.

‘Once you’ve been in a relationship with someone for a couple of years, everyone’s applying the pressure,’ Aston explained.

‘You almost have to step back from that and have the proper conversation with Sarah, but with the guys, it’s like, “Oh, you’re next”. The bravado kicks in and you don’t want to lose face.’
