The pair announced they were expecting back in March, after being engaged for eight months. At the time, Chapman told MailOnline: "We're super excited to finally share our news. I've wanted to shout it from the rooftops since Sarah took the pregnancy test!" Chapman and Tarleton confirmed their relationship back in June 2019.

The couple were forced to delay their wedding due to COVID-19 but Chapman previously told Metro: "What we've decided is we can't control what's going on outside our relationship. We're not in a rush, we're playing it by ear."
