The former Brookside actress has confirmed that she is expecting her first child with fiancé Robbie Tickle.

Ellison has finally confirmed the rumors that she is indeed 4 months pregnant with her first child. The rumors really started to circulate when she was seen wearing a long black flowing maxi dress on August 9 at the wedding of Gary Cockerill. Her and Robbie also left the wedding a lot earlier than their other celebrity pals did.

According to Jennifer she does not know the sex of the baby and will not until the birth. She is also hoping for a natural water birth.

The couple started dating in April 2008 and got engaged last October while on holiday in the Maldives. Plans for the wedding were put on hold when Jennifer found out she was pregnant.

In an interview with OK! magazine, she says that her pregnancy has been quite smooth and her only pregnancy craving has been for cola. She also stated that she has not put on weight yet and has actually lost weight due to revamping her diet and stopping drinking.

She also added, “I’d love a natural birth without pain relief. Rob wants to be really hands-on and see his baby being born - I want him to too. I’d love to get married next year but it just depends how much time the baby takes up.”

Robbie, who is a semi-pro boxer also has twin 8-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.
