MC Harvey and Javine Hylton have confirmed they’re expecting a baby together.

The couple’s relationship became public in November last year when Javine’s then-boyfriend Karl Gordon caught them together and told Harvey’s then-wife Alesha Dixon about the affair.

Harvey added that he hopes Alesha will be happy for them: “I know she’s been told. I’m sure she’ll move on and have kids with someone who will make her very happy, but I don’t know how she’s taken it.”

“No doubt people will say this is yet another blow to Alesha, but it’s been a year now. You have to move on.”

“I believe that Javine and me were meant to meet and have children. Our destiny was mapped out.”

Javine said that she is looking forward to motherhood and hopefully putting the circumstances surrounding the start of their relationship behind them: “At first it was hard being accused of being the other woman, but I’m so over it now.”

“People can call me any name they like and I really don’t care anymore.”
