Montana Brown has shared the exciting news that she and her boyfriend Mark O'Connor will welcome a baby in the summer of 2023.
The 27 year old told her 1.2million Instagram followers she was pregnant in a sweet video clip showing off her baby bump and an ultrasound.
Montana, who rose to fame on the 2017 series of Love Island, kept her relationship with partner Mark under wraps for several months before making it Instagram official in October 2021.
As the couple gear up to become parents, here's everything you need to know about him…
Who is Mark O'Connor?
Mark is a rugby player-turned-real estate executive, having attended Cardiff University and Henly Business School.
He played rugby for Chiswick and Wales 1st Teams as a prop.
He was first pictured with Montana as the pair embarked on a cosy stroll along the beach while on holiday in Barbados at the beginning of 2021, but Montana didn't post him on her social media until October of that year.
At the time, she shared some adorable photo booth snaps and wrote: "Appreciating my hunky man. I know I’m a handful but that’s why you have two hands."
How did they meet?
A source told MailOnline: "Mark has a proprietary interest in Forge Gym London. That's likely how he met Montana.
"He used to be out of shape and is now very much in shape. He's a very wild bloke to go on a night out with, drinks a lot. Very good fun to be with."
They added: "His father owns a huge development/construction firm which he will inherit."
Speaking to new! magazine, Montana revealed: "Mine and Mark’s relationship was born out of the second lockdown. I feel like good things always come when you are not expecting it.
"It's been lovely to feel in a good headspace. Last year I convinced myself that I didn’t want to meet anyone – I'd be on my own forever instead, but he came along when I wasn’t looking."
Do they live together?
It's unknown if the couple are currently live together. However, they do share dog Zola, a German Visla, who they purchased in May 2021.
