A British tabloid is reporting that Big Brother couple Chanelle Hayes and Ziggy Lichman are expecting a child together.

The Daily Star describes how Chanelle discovered she was pregnant while on holiday with Ziggy in Dubai:

"Gorgeous Chanelle, 19, called on staff at the Royal Meridien hotel, Dubai, to dash across the city to a chemist’s and buy a pregnancy test.

"The concierge smuggled the kit into her lavish suite on a silver tray and Chanelle locked herself in the bathroom to find out if she was expecting.

"She then called former pop singer Ziggy, 26, in to join her and broke the news. It was a special joy for Chanelle to even think she could be pregnant.”

The reality TV star feared she would be unable to conceive after a botched abortion 18 months ago.

She tells the Star: “I am in a terrible lot of pain most of the time. The sad thing is that doctors told me I might never be able to have children, which was completely devastating.

“I got rid of that baby because I could not give it the life I want – but to think that that decision might have destroyed my chances of ever being a mum is terrible.”
