Lydia Bright has announced she's pregnant with her first baby... just days after James Argent tweeted that he's had 'bad news'.

She also added: "It's been so hard keeping this a secret. I’ve done so much travelling, I've done all my partying holidays, I'm where I want to be in terms of my life, financially and career-wise. It just feels like the right time for it all to happen for me.”
However, Lydia also revealed she and her boyfriend Lee Cronin - who is the father of her baby - have split.
She continued “It's not the ideal situation [to have split from Lee]. I waited quite a long time to try for a baby, waited until I thought it was perfect. I've always wanted the fairytale. And it's obviously not worked out exactly how I wanted.
"I'm not closing the door on it completely, but I feel like I just keep getting knocked back. I can't beg somebody to be with me, and I can't beg somebody to love me."
This comes just days after Arg tweeted that he'd received some 'bad news' alongside a video of Jessie J to Twitter.
