The Project host Carrie Bickmore has shared the news she is pregnant with her third child.

Bickmore, 37, made the announcement via an Instagram video this morning, in which she tells her daughter there's going to be a new family member.

In the clip, the Gold Logie winner is seen at home with her partner Chris Walker, son Oliver Lange, 10, and daughter Evie Walker, three.

"Mummy's having a baby. There's a baby in Mummy's tummy," Bickmore adds.

Clearly delighted by the news, Evie gasps and asks, "Is it a boy or a girl?"

The expectant mum responds that she doesn't know, and is left in peals of laughter when her daughter then asks whether she's having twins.

"No honey it’s not twins!!!!!!" she clarified on Instagram.

Bickmore became a mum for the first time in 2007, when she and her late husband Greg Lange - who died of brain cancer in 2010 - welcomed baby Ollie.

Speaking on her Hit Network radio show last year, she admitted to finding childbirth so "traumatic" and painful the first time, she sought professional support ahead of Evie's birth in 2015.

"I actually had counselling to get myself OK to be able to give birth to Evie because I was so scared after the first experience," Bickmore said.

“They say you forget and that’s why you go back again. I never forgot.

Bickmore announced she was pregnant for the second time during an episode of The Project in late 2014.

"Well, speaking of babies, I have some news for you tonight: I am having a baby," she told her co-hosts on air.

"My boyfriend, Chris, and I are expecting a baby next year." 

She also added that Ollie, then six, was "stoked" by the idea of a sibling, saying, "I don't think he ever thought he was going to get a brother or sister."

No doubt Ollie and Evie are thrilled about the prospect over having another little sibling to play with.
