‘The most amazing feeling , we’re all so happy and we can’t wait to meet the newest member. @kimberley.s.6 you literally are Wonder Woman and you impress and make me fall in love with you more each day. Roll on November
It was revealed Shane had found love again last August, a year after his marriage to Miss Great Britain Maddie Wahdan broke down.
Shane and Maddie tied the knot in 2022 after dating for six years. However the couple then split one year later amid claims that Shane had been unfaithful to her.
Discussing his marriage breakdown, he told The Sun: ‘I was really gutted about the marriage breakdown and didn’t think I would meet anyone again.’
‘So I threw myself into my gigging career and started performing all over Europe. Then in February I met Kim in Crete and we instantly hit it off.’

‘I love them both sooooo much. Miss them even more! Can’t wait to see them. Off to buy a hat.’
Coleen was inundated with congratulatory messages from people wishing Ciara and Max well.
Her Loose Women co-host Denise Welch wrote: ‘”Good news Coleen congratulations to them both.’
Coleen shares Ciara with her second husband Ray Fensome, who she divorced from in 2018.
Coleen revealed in January that Ciara had gone travelling with no set return date.
Discussing ‘Empty Nest Syndrome’, the former singer admitted to her fellow panellists Ruth Langsford, Janet Street-Porter and Linda Robson that she has been struggling to cope with the huge family change.
Coleen said: ‘They’ve worked really hard and saved up and I’m so proud of them both and her, but honestly, I just can’t stop crying…
‘But I’m trying not to do it in front of her because I’m thrilled and I’m proud because what an amazing thing to do. But it’s like losing my best friend.’ Janet then stunned the panel by demanding Coleen ‘grow up’.

Ruth pointed out Coleen will find hard to get used to her daughter’s absence as Ciara helps ‘run her life’.
Coleen agreed: ‘She is the mother of the house. My son text me the other day and went, “This is going to do you good mum because you need to grow up”‘.
The Blackpool-born star went on to explain that Ciara not only gives a massive help around the house, but she also does a lot of the cooking – easing the workload at home while her mum gets ready for her one-woman tour.
‘It’s just very stressful. Empty Nest Syndrome is real!’ Coleen admitted emotionally.
But Janet quipped: ‘Just speaking for her, she’s got to be allowed to live her own life.’
‘Oh she is being allowed. I don’t have to like it, Janet,’ replied Coleen, with Janet remarking: ‘I know you don’t like it but you have got to grow up a bit Coleen. I never thought I’d say those words. But you have got to manage by yourself.’

Although Ciara had already moved out of the family house in October last year, the Loose Women star found it harder to cope with her daughter’s oversea trip.
A source previously told New!: ‘Coleen has always tried to be a hands-on mum, even when she and her sisters were touring during The Nolans’ heyday, she always wanted them around. She even toured while she was pregnant with Jake…
‘Coleen’s once bustling farmhouse does feel empty without her children…
‘But she’s not alone in feeling like this. Her nephew Danny, her sister Maureen’s son, has moved to the States with his family, so Coleen and Maureen are in the same boat. They’ll be supporting each other, despite their busy schedules.’
