Peaches Geldof has revealed that she is pregnant with her second child.

The former TV presenter said she was expecting a boy with her musician husband, Thomas Cohen.

The couple already have one child, a six-month-old boy named Astala, and say they have decided to name the new baby Phaedra.

Peaches, 23, told Hello! that she had a feeling of "momentary panic" when she found out she was pregnant but that she was now looking forward to it.

"Tom was so supportive and relaxed," said Peaches. "It banished my doubts and I started imagining the two boys growing up together as the best of friends.

"It will be great for Astala to have Phaedra to play with."

She said the idea for the name came from an ancient Greek play.

Peaches, daughter of poverty campaigner Bob Geldof and the late Paula Yates, was previously married to rock musician Max Drummey.

The pair separated in 2009 after a six-month marriage.

Her career has included TV presenting, writing magazine columns and a short stint as a lingerie model.
