Amanda Knox has announced she is pregnant with her first child just weeks after revealing she had suffered a miscarriage.
In the latest episode of her Labyrinths podcast, Knox shared an audio recording of the moment she found out she is pregnant again, shouting: "Thank goodness, we did it."
The 34-year-old, who married her husband Christopher Robinson last year, is heard looking at a pregnancy test and hoping for "three bars", and then repeatedly shouting "yes" after seeing the positive sign.
The American woman and her then-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were initially found guilty of murdering British student Meredith Kercher in Italy in 2007, but were eventually acquitted after a series of court decisions.
Knox, then a student, spent four years in jail in Perugia before being acquitted of her roommate's murder, and is now working as a journalist and criminal justice activist in the US.
Rudy Guede, a local man, was found guilty of murdering Kercher, 21, and sentenced to 16 years in prison. He was released last December after being allowed to finish the rest of his sentence with community service.
Announcing the baby news on Wednesday, Knox and her husband said they plan to launch a new "mini-series" in which they will document the pregnancy and their journey to becoming parents.
Just weeks ago, Knox revealed that she had suffered a miscarriage in May and had to go through an agonising induced birth.
She told her podcast listeners that an ultrasound technician was unable to find her unborn baby's heartbeat at six weeks, and was told at a follow-up appointment that the child had stopped growing.
Knox, who is from Seattle, said: “That was confusing to me, because I thought, ‘why would there be a dead baby just hanging out in there? If it wasn’t viable, why wasn’t it going away?’
"My body didn’t even know, and that felt weird to me… I didn’t know that you could have a missed miscarriage.
“I did feel incredibly disappointed that that was the first story of my first-ever pregnancy.
"I thought, like, I knew exactly what I want to do with my first pregnancy, and to have it not come to fruition not through choice felt like a betrayal."
She added: “Do I have bad eggs and I just never knew? Am I too old? Did something happen to me while I was over in Italy?’
“If it’s not easy and you don’t know why, then anything could be the problem. It’s frustrating how little information you have at any point in the process.”
Knox told listeners that she and her husband were trying for a baby again.
She recently hit out at the Hollywood movie Stillwater, starring Oscar winner Matt Damon, that she said rips off her life story and seeks to profit off her name without her consent.
Director Tom McCarthy has said the Knox case inspired the film about an American oil rig worker who travels to France to help his daughter who is in prison for a murder she says she didn't commit.
Last week, Knox tweeted: "Does my name belong to me? My face? What about my life? My story?
"Why does my name refer to events I had no hand in?
"I return to these questions because others continue to profit off my name, face, & story without my consent.
"Most recently, the film #STILLWATER."
Knox said the movie "reinforces an image of me as a guilty and untrustworthy person."
She added: "I have not been allowed to return to the relative anonymity I had before Perugia.
"My only option is to sit idly by while others continue to distort my character, or fight to restore my good reputation that was wrongfully destroyed."
She invited McCarthy and Damon to hear her point of view by appearing on her "Labyrinths" podcast, which deals with issues ranging from justice to her personal life.
