Billie Piper is pregnant with her third child
A representative confirmed the happy news...
Mum-of-two Billie Piper is pregnant with her third child, it will be her first with boyfriend Johnny Lloyd.
Billie is expecting her first baby with boyfriend of two years Johnny Lloyd. The happy news was confirmed by a representative of the actress who spoke to the MailOnline.
35-year-old Billie shares nine-year-old Winston and six-year-old Eugene with her ex-husband Laurence Fox. Her divorce from Laurence was finalised in November 2017 but the couple had been separated from March 2016.
Billie also married Radio 2 presenter Chris Evans in 2001 but they separated in 2004 and their divorce was confirmed in 2007. They have remained close friends since and Chris is currently expecting twins with his wife Natasha Shishmanian.
The former Doctor Who actress met her current partner Johnny, lead singer for the rock band Tribes, around two years ago and confirmed they were dating last year.
Billie sent her fans into a flurry when she attended the Glamour Women Of The Year Awards in May 2017 wearing a very shiny ring on her wedding finger but a rep confirmed at the time that she and Johnny were not engaged.
While it's unclear if Billie and Johnny will ever tie-the-knot, she's been very open about the prospect of having children together.

Back in February she admitted that she would have lots of children if she could.
She said: 'In my dream world I'd have loads. I was one of four and it’s taxing for both parents and kids. I do like the idea of chaos.'
According to a source that spoke to the Mirror Billie and Johnny are very excited for their new arrival. The source said: 'Billie and Johnny are delighted. They can't wait to welcome the new addition to their family.'
Billie and Johnny haven't made any mention of the baby's gender yet or even how far along she is.
Given how private Billie and Johnny are about their relationship, it's unlikely their baby will be in the limelight much but we hope they share the happy news with us when he or she arrives!
Congratulations to Billie and Johnny!
