Olympic cycling champions Laura and Jason Kenny’s families are “thrilled” with their baby news.
Yesterday, Laura (nee Trott) announced her pregnancy on Instagram with a picture of three bicycles - two adult and a child's - with a simple heart in the caption.
And now the 24-year-old mum to be has revealed that her family is “delighted” that she’s pregnant.
“I can confirm that Laura Kenny is indeed pregnant and that she, Jason and their respective families are absolutely thrilled and delighted with the news,” Luke Lloyd-Davies, the couple's agent, said.

The couple, who married in September in a private ceremony, went public with the news following their 12-week scan.
Laura has previously spoken of wanting to start a family with Jason, but that they said the plan was to wait until after the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
"We would love to have kids obviously but when that will happen I don't know," revealed Laura on Good Morning Britain.
"I think it would be very hard to juggle a cycling career with children to be honest."
Laura is a four-time Olympic champion for Team GB, while Jason has six Olympic track sprint gold medals to his name.
