Kelly Brook announces she's expecting a baby girl with retired rugby ace boyfriend Thom Evans

Model and actress Kelly Brook has made the surprise announcement that she's expecting a baby girl with her boyfriend Thom Evans - just months since they started dating. 

The 31-year-old beauty confirmed the news on Twitter last night revealing: 'Thom and I are happy to announce we are expecting a baby girl. We are delighted XXXX.'

Kelly met 25-year-old former rugby international Thom in November and they have been seeing each ever since.

They were first seen together during Kelly's London birthday celebrations in late November last year at The Dorchester, Mahiki and the May Fair Hotel. This will be the first child for both of them.

Smitten Thom Evans follows Kelly Brook to Hollywood

Kelly Brook has moved to Los Angeles to concentrate on her acting career – but she’s far from lonely in Tinseltown.

She’s been joined by her new boyfriend, former Scotland rugby player Thom Evans.

Thom, 25, also has thespian ambitions and has enrolled in an acting school in LA.

Meanwhile, Gina model Kelly has been busy auditioning for a number of film roles including Mission: Impossible 4.

‘Thom is completely head over heels for Kelly,’ says a pal. ‘He has moved to LA where he’s started acting classes.

‘Kelly is making LA her home and Thom knew if the relationship was to stand a chance he needed to be out there with her. She is overjoyed that Thom made the trip.’

It has been a rocky start for the couple.

Kelly, 31, started stepping out with Thom last November – but then jetted off to the Maldives at Christmas with ex-boyfriend Danny Cipriani.

She has now told friends Thom is the one. ‘They get along really well,’ adds the friend.

‘They’ve got similar goals and want to break into the acting world. Thom has even changed his Facebook status to “In a relationship”.’

Thom’s rugby career ended a year ago when he broke his neck playing for Scotland against Wales and was forced to retire.
