Sam Faiers is three-months pregnant, The Daily Mail reported. She is said to be thrilled to be expecting her first child with property developer Paul Knightley, 26. They started dating last October after they met in an Essex bar - just a few weeks after she ended her turbulent on/off romance with ex-fiance Joey Essex.
"They are really thrilled and really looking forward to being first time parents together," a source told Daily Mail.
Sam admitted during their first magazine photoshoot for OK! magazine, that they had discussed marriage and children.
"We talk about kids more than we do marriage, but as a couple we want the whole package," she explained. She added that she was first to say "I love you."
The couple are planning to move in together. Paul, who lives in Woodford, North East London, already spends time at the reality star's home.
"I'm just about getting an extension put on my house and once that's done he'll move in. In the future we'll buy a house together," Sam said.
Sam quit TOWIE in Spring 2014 after which she's been keeping busy by modelling, running a fitness business, publishing her memoirs and running her Minnie's Boutique business with big sister Billie.
Sam is also a doting aunt to Billie's 13-month-old daughter Nelly. To celebrate her niece's birthday lat month, Sam shared a picture of them together and gushed: "Me & my little lady, my best friend, we have so much fun and we love u more than anything in the world. 1 today the time has gone so quick xx," the Daily reported.
