“Well, our year is about to get a whole lot more colourful 💐 BABY HALL #4 arriving July,” Brant, 34, captioned her post, sharing a photo showing off her baby bump.
“We are so excited to share this news with you all.”
In the photo, Brant and Hall, 46, pose with their three other children – sons Miller (six), Houston (four) and Samson (two).
Celebrity friends raced to congratulate the pair.
“Omg!!! Congratulations ❤️” wrote former SAS Australia star and model Simone Holtznagel.
“Biggest congrats family!” added Kyly Clarke.
Others said they had a sneaking suspicion Brant was pregnant before the big reveal.
“Omg I had a feeling this was happening, you are glowing and I thought I bet… Congrats, so beautiful and special,” wrote one fan.
“No way!!!! Congratulations Lauren & co!!! Wonder if you’re destined to be a boy mum, or will you switch it up with a girl!?!” wondered another.
“So happy for you.”
Brant did not mention in the post if they knew the baby’s gender.
Her post was simply hashtagged #julybaby, #duejuly, #mumof4 and #dadof4.
Brant and Hall met on the set of I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! in 2015.
It wasn’t love at first sight, though — the romance only surfaced when they caught up a year after filming the series.
“The next series had already been on,” Brant later told Nova 100’s Chrissie, Sam & Browny breakfast show.
“And we were both on the Gold Coast and we said, ‘Let’s finally catch up’ … and we caught up!
“I think with being able to eat and have comfort and hair and makeup and all of that stuff which we didn’t have in the jungle, we liked each other.”
In May 2017, the pair announced the birth of their first child, Miller, and in February 2021 they married in secret, a week before Brant’s birthday.
Two more children and a new pregnancy later, some of the pair’s followers are already dubbing the couple’s brood “the Hall-some Foursome”.
“The Hall-some Foursome has a great ring to it!! Congrats honey. Both made to create beautiful babies,” one follower wrote.
“Yay! Another beautiful baby of yours in our world. 🙏🏻🥹,” agreed another.
“OMGoodness!! Amazing news,” gushed a third.
“Congrats guys!
“You do make the cutest babies! ❤️.”
