“But after years of sometimes quite painful IVF and dark times, I’m pregnant!<\/p>\n

“We feel like we’ve been given the world.”<\/p>\n

Liz also wrote a heartwarming message next to the video, which read: “I started to record a video of me just telling you but I got too emotional so I thought I\u2019d just hide behind this little announcement instead.<\/p>\n

“I just can\u2019t believe we\u2019re here. <\/p>\n

“So many have been through exactly what I went through and worse.<\/p>\n

“I want to share what I can and add my voice and ears to those who already help others understand or deal with all that comes with IVF and loss after so much hope.<\/p>\n

Liz and her husband Peter got married<\/a> two years ago in the\u00a0Lake District<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sharing the news at the time, the singer – who has since changed her surname to McClarnon-Cho, wrote: “A few days ago Peter & I tied the knot surrounded by some of the people we love and care for (and little Bean – our dog) and I wanted to share this lovely picture with you from our day.<\/p>\n

“We are so grateful to everyone that was there, especially some that travelled from all across the world to be there with us (Australia, LA, Hong Kong, Ibiza\u2026)<\/p>\n

“And finally\u2026 Dearest online friends that worked out what day it was, I just wanted to thank you for your lovely messages, you\u2019ve been so kind<\/p>\n

“A dear friend said ‘You could see the love from the moon that day’ and that\u2019s exactly how it felt.”<\/p>\n

Liz shot to fame in 1998 when she joined the girlband Atomic Kitten alongside Natasha and Kerry Katona<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The group had instant success thanks to their No. 1 single, Whole Again.<\/p>\n
