The 33-year-old – who fell pregnant just seven months after giving birth to her first child, daughter Molly – told us: “There are 4 of us now…”

Posting to her 197,000 Instagram followers, Question of Sport panelist Sam wrote: “This time last year you changed our lives and continue to do so every day.
“Happy 1st birthday Molly. May you always smile, love and be hungry like you are every day! We love you.”
Opening up about the shock pregnancy in October, Sam said OK!“It was a surprise but we didn’t prevent it from happening, if that makes sense.
She continued: “After Molly, we discussed that we would like the children to be close to each other and what that meant. My closeness was 18 months and I wanted to start trying after Christmas.
“But Tom was close, it was to start trying after my six-week check-up!”
Tom added: “We tried for 18 months to two years with Molly and we had [a] miscarriage.

“Since Molly had taken so long, we decided not to stop trying, but we wouldn’t start using the ovulation charts and being regimented like last time before Christmas. Turns out we’re great fertile now! I was shocked.”
Discussing the prospect of having two children a year apart, Sam said: “I know it’s going to be tough logistically and when they’re both crying, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed that we have another Molly.
“She’s so cold and she’s slept from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. since she was two months old. The next one could be just the opposite. I’m a natural worrier, but we’ll just go with it and hope for the best. .”

Tom added: “I know everything will be fine. Sam was an amazing hockey player, but she’s an even better mother so I never had to worry.
“We think it will be really good that Molly isn’t aware of the sibling rivalry and doesn’t feel left out.
“There’s always this danger when they get to two or three that they start to feel jealous. My only fear is that I can’t imagine loving someone as much as I love Molly.”
