Ben and Abby met in 1995, when the sportsman was 17-years-old, and have twin daughters together, Isabelle and Harriette, both aged 7.
When asked how far into her pregnancy she was, Kristina replied “almost three months”.
I didn’t know how to deal with that, and obviously, I thought it’s very private news, but because we’re living as one family now and everybody needs to sort of support one and other now.
The housemates erupted in congratulatory comments with Kristina bursting in to tears. “Thank you guys, I just didn’t know how to break it, what to say, when to say, it played on my mind and I wanted everyone to hear”.
Kristina Rihanoff is believed to be the first housemate to enter the house while pregnant.
According to The Mirror, Kristina is said to be “overjoyed” at the news that she’s expecting her first child with Ben.
Kristina Rihanoff and Ben Cohen attend the launch photocall for the Strictly Come Dancing live tour 2014 at NIA Arena on January 16, 2014 in Birmingham, England.
Rihanoff met her partner, rugby star Ben Cohen, when they were partnered on the BBC One show a year ago.
Abby has remained silent on her Twitter account this week, however her mother Felicity Bassouls has branded Kristina “cruel” and Ben a “coward” for their actions.
At the time, Abby said: “The last two years have been the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to me”.
“Kristina a mummy. Now that’s news”.
So have you been dragged in yet or are you still resisting the temptation of Celebrity Big Brother this year?
She said: “I will try to be the mum of the house and hopefully I’ll enjoy the experience”.
