TV presenter Samantha Hayes reveals unborn baby's gender

Two months after announcing she's expecting her first baby with partner Jeroen Blaauw, Samantha Hayes has revealed her baby's gender.

And she is excited to announce, it's a boy!

Sharing the news on Instagram, the proud mum-to-be wrote: "Out today.. I had a chat with @womansdaynz about our baby, who is already very active! & why we think he’ll be a good little mountaineer one day."

She told Woman's Day magazine, Jeroen was "so excited" about the news.

She also revealed she can't wait to meet her son, who is due in Spring, saying: "I talk to him all the time in my tummy and I definitely feel a bond already."

Hayes met Jeroen four years ago whilst travelling in Brazil, but the pair didn't take their friendship to the next level until one such mountain climbing trip - an effort to climb Mount Aconcagua in the Andes.

Hayes found out she was pregnant upon their return home and says it was "very much a happy surprise".

"I'm 35 now and it's definitely the right time for me to have a baby. I feel extremely lucky that it's come along."

Congratulations Samantha and Jeroen!
