Strictly Come Dancing’s Neil Jones, 40, and Love Island star Chyna Mills, 24, made the surprising announcement today that they were not only engaged but also expecting their first child together.
The couple revealed that Chyna is currently 13 weeks pregnant and is set to welcome their little one in the autumn.
Neil’s ex-wife Katya Jones, 33, who still works on Strictly alongside her ex, has responded to the exciting news.
Katya and Neil married in 2013 before splitting in 2019 after pictures emerged of the dancer kissing Strictly partner Seann Walsh in 2018.
Neil shared his pregnancy and engagement news on Instagram, with Katya resharing the post in view of her 215,000 followers.

She wrote: “So happy for these two! @mr_njonesofficial You deserve all the happiness.”
Despite claims, Neil revealed the kiss scandal was not the reason for his split with Katya in a previous interview.
He told The Sun: “We found that we’d grown apart like people do, so we were like, ‘OK, let’s go our separate ways’.
“It had nothing to do with what happened [with Seann]. We were moving in different directions but we are friends again now.
“Katya is a great girl and I’ve got nothing bad to say about her.”
Neil popped the question to Love Island star Chyna as they enjoyed a romantic getaway in Bali recently.
He told HELLO!: “I’d already planned to ask Chyna to marry me before we knew she was pregnant.
“Then we found out and I was like, ‘Oh, this is brilliant, everything is coming together’.”
The reality star first caught Neil’s eye when she appeared on ITV2’s Love Island last summer.
The pair then went public with their romance in August last year as they enjoyed a romantic trip to Paris.
They have since attended several events together and regularly share each other on socials.
This comes as Katya admits she is planning a “husband hunting holiday” as she continues to stay single.
She told The Sun on Sunday: “We will definitely be going on a husband-hunting trip very soon.
“I mean we’re constantly husband-hunting. Modern dating is very complicated, I don’t always understand men’s thinking, but I’d like to think I’m a good judge of character.”
