The TV star captioned the photos: "Gender reveal dump! What a day. We even had sunshine.

Another penned: "Wahoooooooo thrilled for you both. I said to Lee GIRL"
As a third typed: "Blessings and alllllll di fanssss!!!"
In the jungle Babatunde told campmates he and Leonie were friends at school until one day he realised, “Wow, you’re pretty” and their romance blossomed from there.
But it wasn’t all plain sailing, as Leonie recalled: "Our first date was Nandos and I was late and he told me, ‘If you’re late again you’ll get here and I won’t be here.’
"And I kid you not he wasn’t joking."
Despite his blunt warning, Leonie, who runs a travel consultancy business, said they “fell in love within like seven days”.
The comedian was evicted fifth on ITV's I'm A Celebrity in December.
Two years before he was working a desk job while trying to make it as an actor, having enjoyed small roles in EastEnders and The Walking Dead.
Following the jungle, the comedian sold out nine dates of his Babahood tour, and said he hopes to carve out a career as a presenter.
“There is an art and a skill to it and I don’t think I have it,” he said. “So I need to learn or I can learn on the job.”
He continued: “I’m grateful to the British public for embracing me.
