The news came as a ‘shock’ to Peaches and her husband Tom Cohen and she’s admitted that she's somewhat panicked by the prospect of having two babies so close together.

She told Hello magazine: ‘I did have a momentary panic and go, “Oh my God, we're going to have a one-year-old and a one-month-old! How will we cope?”’

But Peaches was quick to stress Tom calmed her, adding: 'Tom was so supportive and relaxed, it banished my doubts and I started imagining the two boys growing up together as the best of friends. There are massive benefits to having two children so close together.'

The couple’s first son, Astala, was born in May and shortly after the birth, Peaches realized she’d been craving sour sweets like she did during her first pregnancy. It was this that prompted her to take a pregnancy test.

Following the news, Peaches said she’s delighted: ‘I may be only 23 and the only one of our friends who's married, got a baby on the way and is on the verge of moving to Surrey, but it's a life I always dreamed of and I couldn't be happier.'

Congratulations Peaches and Tom!
