According to OK!, Aston Merrygold’s bandmates were some of the first to know, as they’d mocked up Save the Dates to give to them.
Sarah told the magazine, “We had mocked up these Save the Dates and when they turned them over there was the scan picture! The girls screamed! Rochelle [Humes] and Chloe [Gill] couldn’t believe it.”
Aston joked, “The boys were like, what?! We’ll have seven between us now. It’s 7 aside, or two bands!”
Sarah Lou Richards is due in May 2020, and we can't wait to find out whether it's a boy or a girl!
