The model mother and her husband Wesley Quirke welcomed baby Sophia into the world last November via a surrogate, and Rosanna is now into month five of carrying her own twins.

The joyous news comes after she spoke openly about her heartbreak following 14 pregnancy losses.

Rosanna shared a family photo of her baby bump on social media and wrote: ‘We have some news! @Wesquirke and I are beyond overjoyed to announce that we’re expecting identical twin boys this November. We’re absolutely thrilled to complete our family and for our daughter Sophia to have two siblings so close in age to her.’

She explained: ‘As I’ve spoken openly about this year, we struggled with fourteen pregnancy losses over the past few years and a challengin­g fertility journey before finally welcoming Sophia last November by gestationa­l surrogate. I was told that I would probably never be able to carry my own baby due to a suspected immune system dysfunctio­n, which numerous different medical treatments failed to rectify. So for this to just happen naturally, and to have twins too by complete chance, is an absolute dream come true for us.’

Rosanna, 36, added that her doctor can’t offer a medical explanatio­n as to why she has been able to sustain this pregnancy, and said it will probably always remain one of life’s ‘mysteries’.

She did, however, say that she discovered that she was pregnant after the first month of lockdown – when she was far more relaxed than she has been in years and enjoying the slow pace of family life at home, despite the despite the ‘anxiety and sadness’ in world.

Rosanna continued: ‘So perhaps that time out from the stress of busy everyday life made all the difference.

‘We still can’t quite believe it ourselves and it’s taken a long time to properly process it and feel ready to share the news.

‘As if 2020 hasn’t already been packed with enough surprises!

‘Fertility miracles may take some time, but they really can happen in the most unexpected and magical ways. As always, sending so much love to those of you still on your baby journey.’ Never give up hope,’ she concluded.

‘An absolute dream come true for us’
