The couple received congratulations from a host of their famous friends including Radio 1′s Clara Amfo, singer Fleur East and Strictly Come Dancing pro Johannes Radebe.

Nicola and Ella announced they were expecting a baby in February after four rounds of IVF starting in 2019.

The pair began dating after meeting on a night out in the Olympian’s hometown of Leeds.

In addition to her illustrious boxing career, Nicola made TV history in 2020 when she became the first celebrity to compete in Strictly Come Dancing as part of a same-sex pairing.

Unfortunately, she and Katya Jones had their Strictly journey cut short when the professional dancer tested positive for Covid.
