According to the Daily Star, TV bosses are hopeful a series featuring the pair will be as successful as reality show What Katie Did Next, which followed the lives of model Katie Price who was then married to Alex.

Doctors had recently told Houghton, 28, that she was running out of eggs and had to conceive in the next three years if she wanted to become a mother.

She announced her pregnancy last month, just five weeks after Reid proposed on Irish TV.

The couple had been planning to start a course of IVF treatment.

Houghton said: 'I'm 11 weeks gone. I don't know exactly when the baby was conceived. I can't even believe I'm pregnant.

'We were a week away from starting IVF. The thought of conceiving naturally had gone out of my mind completely - I didn't even think it was possible. I had my fertility injections in the fridge.'

The former Celebrity Big Brother winner confessed she had no idea she was pregnant and had gone on roller coasters during a trip to Orlando.

She also revealed the couple want to know the sex of their child because she 'can't wait nine months.'

In a recent interview with new! magazine, Houghton said: 'Everyone is waiting on me hand and foot. It's brilliant!

'Alex is so supportive. He won't let me carry anything heavy and he's always asking if I want anything.'

The couple met at the Fate Awards in Belfast last April, just a few weeks after Houghton's high-profile split from TV presenter Rav Wilding.

She was previously married to singer Samuel Preston after they met in the Big Brother house in 2006.

Cage fighter Reid separated from Price in January after only a year of marriage.

That's how to wear maternity clothes! Radiant Chantelle Houghton drapes her baby bump in a glamorous golden gown

Golden and glowing: Pregnant Chantelle Houghton attends the launch of her fake eyelashes line Fake It in London


Nobody ever expected Chantelle Houghton to drape herself in shapeless tunics and stretchy leggings during her pregnancy.

But the glamorous reality star took maternity chic to a whole new level today at the launch of her new fake eyelashes line.

The 28-year-old wore a dazzling gold strapless gown to the event in Soho, central London, with a daring slit that showed off her legs.


The mother-to-be's dress was embellished with sequins and trimmed in crystals.

The low neckline put Chantelle's pregnancy cleavage on prominent display.

She proudly cradled her bump as she posed for photographers at the Fake It! launch.

The former Celebrity Big Brother star kept the glamour stakes high with cascading blonde curls and heavy eye make-up to draw attention to her fluttering lashes.

The range of Fake It! lashes includes 12 different styles, including Mystique, Siren, Raven and Starlet and a duo 'day and night' pack.

Chantelle is just three months into her pregnancy but already showing a prominent bump.

Miss Houghton told the magazine that doesn't care how much weight she gains during her pregnancy.

Chantelle announced her pregnancy last month, just five weeks after Reid, who was married to Katie Price, proposed to her on Irish TV.

And speaking to the magazine, Chantelle, who has battled with her body weight and had breast implants, said being pregnant has helped her get over her body issues.

She said: 'I don’t care how fat I get. I’ll get as fat as a house as long as everything’s OK.

'I’m not worrying about losing the weight afterwards. I’ll just do it gradually. I’m in no rush to snap back into shape. I’m not putting any pressure on myself. And Alex will help me.'

Suits you! Chantelle looked happy and relaxed and couldn't stop posing for pictures with her bump

Chantelle, who was married to singer Samuel Preston after they met in the Big Brother house in 2006, said her pregnancy is a miracle after she was told by doctors that in-vitro fertilisation was her only hope of getting pregnant.

She said: 'What’s the saying? Where there’s a sperm, there’s a way.

'I only release an egg three times a year, so the chances of me actually getting pregnant naturally were one per cent – slim to none. I think maybe it happened because we weren’t just having sex to get pregnant any more.'

But while she is embracing her pregnancy, she said it will be weird not being able to celebrate Christmas this year with alcohol.

She said: 'I love Christmas, and not being able to drink will be strange. I can’t wait to have a drink, but I’m all right with it.

'I’m going to get something so special at the end of all this that a glass of wine or going out getting smashed means nothing.'

Happy mum-to-be: Chantelle Houghton shows off her baby bump as she spoke about putting on weight, not being able to drink this Christmas and the miracle that is her pregnancy


It's the pregnancy she never thought would ever happen after she revealed this year that she has very low fertility.

So it's no wonder that Chantelle Houghton is ready to embrace her baby bump - and she doesn't care how fat she gets.

The reality TV star is three-and-a-half months pregnant with hers and fiance Alex Reid's first child and is already starting to show quite a lot.


And she proudly showed off her burgeoning bump as she spoke to New! magazine about putting on weight and the miracle of being with child.

Chantelle, 28, announced her pregnancy last month, just five weeks after Reid, who was married to Katie Price, proposed to her on Irish TV.

'I look like Casper!' Pregnant Chantelle Houghton bemoans her lack of fake tan as she enjoys date night with fiancé Alex Reid

By Sarah Bull


'I feel like Casper!' Chantelle Houghton wrote on her Twitter page that she had felt like a ghost because of her lack of fake tan out with fiancé Alex Reid last night


Being from Essex, Chantelle Houghton is no stranger to fake tan.

But last night the 28-year-old model complained she was feeling less than bronzed as she headed out with fiancé Alex Reid.

The pretty blonde, who is expecting her first child with Reid, admitted she felt incredibly pale as she attended the Randy Couture book launch in Mayfair.

Chantelle took to her Twitter page this morning to tell fans she was looking forward to getting a spray tan on Monday.

She tweeted: 'Cannot wait until fake bake come to my house on monday, I'm looking very much like casper the friendly ghost right now! #badtimes.'

Despite her apparent lack of tan, Chantelle looked incredibly glamorous as she and Reid attended the event at the Anaya nightclub.

Having fun? The pair appeared in good spirits as they attended the Randy Couture book launch in Mayfair


With a huge pair of fake eyelashes and her long blonde hair teased into chic girls, Chantelle donned a pair of tight black leggings and thigh-high boots for the occasion.

But the former Big Brother star decided to keep her burgeoning bump under wraps beneath a huge black fur coat.

Earlier in the week, Chantelle had complained that her changing figure was causing huge issues with her wardrobe.

She tweeted: 'My bump is getting so big it ripped my dress open tonight! Oops! X'

Starting to show: Chantelle's bump is taking shape three months into her pregnancy


The couple first found out Chantelle was pregnant just five weeks after Reid, 36, proposed to her on an Irish chat show.

He then presnted her with a stunning platinum ring encrusted with six diamonds which cost him £50,000.

They had been trying for a baby since August after Houghton revealed she had a low fertility.

Despite her luck at pregnant so quickly, she has hit out at sceptics who may have questioned her fertility issues.

She explained: 'I've been seeing a private doctor and he said: "Well, you've proved them wrong, haven't you?"

'Alex and I have spent thousands on private fertility treatment. All the tests and consultations. I have all the drugs at home. It does make me question these doctors.

But then again, maybe it really is a miracle.'

Just bumping along: Pregnant Chantelle settles into domestic bliss with fiancé Alex Reid

By Holly Thomas


The first signs of Chantelle Houghton's new baby bump were in evidence today.

Showing off her engagement ring, the former glamour model hit Sainsbury's in Brentwood with her fiancé Alex Reid.

The pair looked relaxed as Alex chivalrously pushed the trolley, one arm lovingly around Chantelle.

Chantelle kept it casual with a cosy white jumper, but showed off her slender legs with super-skinny jeans and a towering pair of black and gold heels.

Alex looked equally laid back in a navy cable jumper and jeans, staying warm with a grey scarf.

The couple chatted and laughed as they unloaded their weekly shop.

Smitten: The couple couldn't keep their eyes off each other, with Alex keeping a protective arm around Chantelle


Chantelle is 11 weeks pregnant with her first child.

She has clearly thrilled to be expecting, and took to Twitter yesterday to thank fans for their outpour of support since the announcement was made.

'Thank you ALL so much for your lovely tweets. Been so nice reading them all ☺ ♥ X,' she gushed.

Maternal instinct kicking in? Chantelle held one arm over her tummy


The couple's baby news comes just five weeks after Reid, 36, proposed to her on an Irish chat show.

The giddy blonde tells OK! magazine: 'Oh my God! I'm pregnant. Let me through - I'm going to be the yummiest mummy there is.

'I'm milking it, trust me. I've told my friends and family, if I'm going through it, you're all going through it.

Feeling thirsty? The trolley was crammed with water and red bull


'I don't know exactly when the baby was conceived... I found out four weeks ago.'

The couple revealed they were trying for a baby in August after Houghton revealed she had a low fertility.

At the time, Houghton claimed doctors told her in-vitro fertilisation was her only hope of getting pregnant.

Discussing baby names? The pair were engrossed in conversation


But given she's nearly three months along, it appears the reality star fell pregnant immediately when she began trying.

The Big Brother stars were on the verge of starting IVF treatment when Houghton did a pregnancy test from Boots.

Despite her luck at pregnant so quickly, she has hit out at sceptics who may have questioned her fertility issues.

'Alex and I have spent thousands on private fertility treatment. All the tests and consultations. I have all the drugs at home. It does make me question these doctors. But then again, maybe it really is a miracle.'

No doubt Reid will be pleased his fiancée's pregnancy has silenced those who accused him of 'shooting blanks' when he was trying to have a baby with estranged wife Katie Price.

Reid and Price underwent two courses IVF treatment last year after struggling to conceive for six months.

Because Price has already had three children, critics unfairly accused Reid of being infertile.

But he proudly spoke of his virility at the time on his Twitter page, saying: 'Two specialists both confirm I have above average sperm production and working great.'

Impromptu: Reid proposed to Houghton on The Saturday Night Show in Ireland last month


Houghton and Reid announced their engagement last month after a whirlwind six month romance.

They started dating in April after meeting at Fate Awards in Belfast, just a few weeks after Houghton's high-profile split from TV presenter Rav Wilding.

But they will have to wait until Reid divorces estranged wife Katie Price, following their separation earlier this year.

No doubt both will be hoping their second marriage lasts longer than their first after both couples separated just 10 months after their weddings.

Reid wed Price in Las Vegas in February 2010 after seven months of dating, while Houghton tied the knot with Samuel Preston in April 2006, just four months after meeting on Celebrity Big Brother.
