McFly's Tom Fletcher and wife Giovanna have revealed they are expecting their first child together.

The pair announced the news by posting a Halloween-themed video online, external.

In it they carve four pumpkins before turning off the lights and revealing they have cut out the words "we're having a baby".

Fletcher tweeted a link to the video, writing: "Me and @mrsgifletcher have some rather exciting news to share with you."

He later added: "If the little Fletcher thinks I'm sharing my toys he's/she's got another thing coming!"

Bandmate Harry Judd was one of the first to send best wishes to the couple, posting, "Congratulations Tom & Gi."

Fletcher will be the first McFly member to become a father.

He and Giovanna married in London in 2012.

The band formed in 2003 and have released five studio albums, selling more than 10 million records worldwide.
