Dawn O’ Porter and Chris O’Dowd
As we would only expect from this entertaining duo, Dawn and Chris had a novel way of announcing their impending new arrival.

Chris revealed it during his ALS Ice Bucket challenge, which involves pouring a bucket of freezing cold water over his head to raise awareness and funds for motor neurone disease and nominating Baby O’Porter.

Dawn then took up the challenge,  shrieking  as she poured a small glass of ice cubes and water over her baby bump.

This is the  first baby for the couple who married in a low-key ceremony in June 2012.
