Murgatroyd, who said she and Chmerkovskiy \"shrieked with joy\" when they found out their baby was \"fully healthy,\" added that he is \"already measuring quite large\" and \"loves to kick mummy in the ribs at all hours of the night.\"

Murgatroyd, who married Chmerkovskiy in July 2017, announced her pregnancy in January after having experienced what she called \"constant struggle and heartache\" to have a second child.
