If there’s one thing we learnt after her appearance on the 2017 series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! it’s Lisa Curry is a family woman through and through and she lives for her daughters Morgan and Jamie and son Jett.

The proud mother-of-three loves her brood, who she shares with ex-husband Grant Kenny, hard.

And now, the former Olympic swimming champ is celebrating an exciting family milestone – her very first grandchild.

In September last year, the star confirmed her oldest daughter Morgan Kenny was expecting a baby with husband Ryan Gruell.

This week Lisa, who announced her engagement to her Elvis impersonator beau Mark Tabone in 2016, shared a touching snap of the Kenny clan’s hands around Morgan’s baby bump.

“Not long to go now until I become a granma…. this little pickle is going to be loved and squeezed and spoiled so much,” she penned.

Before adding: “All my kids hands… mumma @morgan__kenny Aunty @jaimileekenny Uncle @jhetkenny and Granma me. Not long to go.”

Lisa has even put a call out to her social media followers, asking: “What should should my name be? Don’t feel old enough to be granma [sic]. Suggestions?”

“Glam-ma! Sounds perfect,” one friend pitched.

“My mum is GG which stands for gorgeous grandma! So easy for my daughter to say too,” another fan said.

Throughout Morgan’s pregnancy the extremely close mother-daughter duo, who both work as personal trainers on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, have been keeping fit together.

Once Morgan’s bub arrive, it will also mean her adorable half-sister Trixie Belle Box, four, will become an aunt.

Trixie, whose parents are Fifi Box and Grant Kenny, is often spotted with her adoring three older siblings and there’s no doubt she’ll love having another little relative to play with.

Trixie is very much part of the Kenny clan.

Meanwhile there’s no official word yet on when Lisa’s wedding to Mark will be.

When we caught up with her fresh from her I’m A Celeb eviction last year, she revealed she was getting help from co-star Carson Kressley on her wedding dress.

“I talked to Carson a lot about fashion and wedding and design, he came up with a few good ideas. I’ve got a few things in my mind so it’s all good,” she told us at the time.

Lisa is engaged to Elvis impersonator Mark Tabone.
