Andy Murray and Kim Sears were married in April

The pregnancy has since been confirmed by Murray’s agent, the BBC writes.

The former Wimbledon champion's mother Judy recently told a magazine that she was "really looking forward to being a granny".

Murray, 28, enjoyed a strong run of form after marrying his long-term girlfriend in front of family and friends at Dunblane Cathedral on April 11, reaching the semi-finals of the French Open and Wimbledon, and winning his first titles on clay.

Speaking to Sky Sports 3 earlier this year, he said: ''It (marriage) has been nice and a lot of people have spoken about the honeymoon period.

''But we've been together a very long time and getting married was the next step."

Murray fans were quick to congratulate the couple after news of Kim's pregnancy was reported, tweeting him their best wishes.
