Pregnant Stacey Dooley has lovingly paid tribute to boyfriend Kevin Clifton on his 40th birthday in a gushing message which she signed from her and their unborn baby.

The documentary maker, 35, confirmed in August that she is pregnant with her and former Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer Clifton’s first child together.

Taking to Instagram, she uploaded a collage of photos of Clifton with a bright yellow background and the words “Jumping in to forty”.

“King Kev. Will you dance with me for the next 40 yrs??? LOVE U 4(0) EVA,” she wrote alongside it.

Adding: “Simply the best. Love alwayzzzz, your gf and your baby,” she wrote.

Dooley and Clifton first met when partnered together on the BBC dance competition back in 2019.

Not only did they win the coveted Glitterball trophy that year, they found love and have been going strong ever since.

Flame-haired Dooley shared the news of her pregnancy on social media by posting a polaroid picture showing off her blossoming baby bump.

“Gaaaaaaang..... We are having a baby! So bloody delighted,” she exclaimed in the caption.

“Kev, you’re magic, I love youuuu. (Was becoming impossible to hide and if one more person asks me if I’ve had my tits done in LA I’m gonna scream).”

Taking to his own Instagram account, Clifton wrote: “We’re having a baby! And I think my girl @sjdooley looks beautiful pregnant.”

The couple’s celebrity friends were quick to offer their congratulations in the comments section.

Leading the well wishes was former Love Island host Laura Whitmore, who wrote: “So delighted for you guys!! Congrats.”

“SO made up for you,” echoed This Morning presenter Rochelle Humes, while their former Strictly co-star said “Congratulations,” followed by a string of red love heart emojis.

“Ohhhhh thrilled for you guys! Amazing xxxx,” added singer Jessie Ware.
