“It’ll be the more the merrier. Theodore and Gigi absolutely love each other – they’re always playing together. My sister Amber is my best friend and I want the three of them to be best mates,” Vogue told Hello! Magazine.

“Gigi doesn’t have a clue she’s getting a little brother or sister and I don’t think Theodore minds. He doesn’t really understand yet. If I ever mention the baby, he asks: ‘Is it coming now?'”

Vogue, who said she plans to find out the gender of the baby, had been trying for another child but “never expected it to happen as easily as it did.”

The couple, who married in 2018, will head to New York City for Spencer’s upcoming work trip, which will double as a mini babymoon.

“I’ve got a few meetings, but Vogue and I will spend time together. When you’re as busy as we are, sometimes you fail to make time for one another so we’re treating this as an opportunity to enjoy each other’s company,” Spencer, who is the brother of Pippa’s husband James, revealed.

Spencer, who shot to fame on Made in Chelsea, married Vogue, a model and TV presenter, in a private wedding ceremony in Scotland in August 2018.

The following month, they welcomed their son Theodore Frederick Michael, whose middle names are a tribute to two late family members.

Theodore was named after Vogue’s father Frederick and Spencer’s brother Michael, who died aged 22 in 1999 after reaching the summit of Mount Everest.

“His name lives on in our family and always will do,” the former playboy told HELLO! Magazine at the time.

In July last year, Vogue and Spencer added to their brood when they welcomed their daughter Gigi.

But the second time around wasn’t the easiest, they revealed – Vogue struggled to fall pregnant following the birth of her son.

The mum-of-one found out she suffered from polycystic ovary syndrome – a condition which can make it difficult to fall pregnant.

“It was certainly a different path for us this time, so it’s really nice to be here and talking about it now,” Vogue explained.

“We just had a few bumps in the road this time around and it just wasn’t as straightforward as it was with Theodore,” she said.
