Earlier this year, Mummy Pig appeared on Good Morning Britain and said the family was thrilled to welcome another baby.
“Well, I’m excited to share that our family is getting even bigger because… We’re having another baby!”
Mummy Pig admitted she was feeling a little “overwhelmed” at the thought of having three little piggies below the age of five “running around” under the same roof. But she said she was “mostly just completely delighted.”
Viewers can expect an hour-long cinema special called Peppa Meets The Baby to be released in theatres on 30 May.
Social media posts online revealed that Walmart and Eventbrite accidentally leaked the name of Peppa Pig’s new baby sister online, weeks before the little one’s birth was announced.
