Katie Price has thanked fans for their messages after she announced her pregnancy.

The glamour girl is expecting her fourth child - her first with new husband Kieran Hayler - and the congratulations have been pouring in.

She tweeted: "Thank you soo much for all the lovely messages xxxx."

Katie also revealed she was celebrating her baby news by whipping up a feast in the kitchen for her family.

She wrote: "Right time to put roast on cooking for 13 people love it x."

Katie's pregnancy comes just weeks after she and Kieran tied the knot and while she confessed it came as a 'shock' she said the couple are thrilled.

She told The Sun: "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous because I've experienced miscarriages in the past.

"But we're all over the moon. The baby wasn't part of our plan at this stage, but anyone who knows me knows I'm not one for sticking to rules and plans."

Katie, 34, is already mum to Junior, seven, and Princess Tiaamii, five, from her marriage to Peter Andre, and 10-year-old Harvey from her relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke.

She said her brood are 'excited that a new brother or sister is on the way'.
