Nikki previously opened up about having a boy, admitting she’d had an inkling she was going to be a boy mum.
“Anthony and I always said that we didn’t mind what we were having as long as our baby is healthy. There was no, ‘I’d love this or that’ – we were just over the moon,” she told Closer in March.
“But subconsciously, I always felt like I was going to be a boy mum and my family said the same. Whenever I thought about motherhood, I just kept envisioning a baby boy in my arms. Anthony’s thrilled because he’s going to have a mini Manchester United sidekick!”
