Beth and Connagh's famous pals quickly took to the comments to congratulate the pair including All Stars winner Molly Smith and Shaughna Phillips.

The couple first announced they were 'over the moon' that Beth was pregnant back in April.

The new parents shared the happy news with a video showing Beth's struggle with fertility and their IVF journey.

The reality stars were seen breaking down in tears as they showed their long journey before getting pregnant with their 'miracle' child.  

She wrote: 'Every injection, every tear, every procedure, every pain; every last inch of this journey has been worth it for you, and I'd do it 100 times over if I had to, we already love you so much.

'Our baby decided the time was right and we are over the moon to finally announce we are PREGNANT.'

She continued: 'I know that not everyone's journey looks like ours, and announcements like this are hard to see, I've been there and I see you. To those still waiting for their miracle, I send you all my love and hope. Don't give up.'

Beth and Connagh's, who starred on season six of the ITV2 dating show, famous friends rushed to congratulate the couple including Sophie Kasaei who commented: 'Oh my god Beth this is unbelievable. I knew your time would come. 

Beth added on her Story: 'So grateful for our strong miracle baby boy. Having to have you early means we get eight extra weeks with you precious. We love you so much x.'

Paige Turley said: 'Awwww so happy for you guys. Congratulations.' Love Island stars Molly Smith and Callum Jones wrote: 'The best news', and 'Congratulations to you both.' 

Beth has previously been open about her journey to get pregnant and revealed she and Connagh stopped being 'careful' a year ago in hope they would fall pregnant.

Beth underwent endometriosis surgery in 2022 before being referred to a fertility clinic in September of that year.

Connagh's first semen analysis came back borderline but after cutting out protein supplements and making other adjustments, he retested in February 2023 and his sample had 'improved'. 

The Circle star then had eight sessions of acupuncture, which didn't work.

After being told they had 'unexplained fertility', the couple, who started dating in 2020, were offered IVF. 

Connagh and Beth moved in together in 2021 after living with her parents through lockdown in 2020.  

Connagh got down on one knee in December last year.
