According to BabyNames.co.uk, the name Reggie means: "Ruler with counsel."

That makes it a pretty good choice for the firstborn son of such an inspiring athlete, doesn't it?

While Jessica and childhood sweetheart Andy Hill - who tied the knot last year - weren't planning a baby, Jessica revealed in an official statement that they were over-the-moon at their happy news.

"I have some very unexpected but exciting news to share – Andy and I are expecting a baby.

"We are completely overwhelmed, with excitement and a degree of anxiety that I am sure all first time parents will relate to. My plans for 2014 have been completely turned upside down."

"But having had a couple of weeks to think about things from a career point of view I am 100 per cent set on returning to full-time athletics once our baby is born and go for a second gold medal at the Rio Olympics in 2016 – that challenge really excites me.

"In the short term I will make our baby a priority and enjoy the whole experience as much as possible.

"I am sorry I wont be in Glasgow for the Commonwealth Games, but know it will be an amazing occasion. I will be at home awaiting the arrival of a little Ennis-Hill."
