She told OK! magazine, "It’s so overwhelming, being pregnant with all the emotions you go through. But with having the house, I’ve had a lot to focus on."
Frankie confessed that she and Luke didn't want to find out the gender of their unborn babies at first, but that they changed their minds to avoid any more surprises.
The pair shared they didn't expect to become pregnant so soon after stopping the contraceptive pill. Frankie told new! magazine, "Luke suggested I come off it, as it took one of his friends two years to get pregnant, and we wanted to try soon, plus I wanted to let my body go back to normal."
