“It was a huge surprise. When the ultrasound operator announced it was twins I thought he was playing a joke. My partner had to remind me to take a good look at the screen. This was no joke,” the journalist reveals.

“Initially I was quite scared of the daunting task ahead but I’ve come to realise I’ve had some hard times already and as a former correspondent I went through years on minimal sleep, so surely I can cope with this too.

“Dan and I are thrilled. Thank you Peter for delivering the best news of our lives.”
