The 25-year-old made the announcement on social media after The Sun<\/em> newspaper published an article regarding Peaty and partner Eirianedd Munro\u2019s news.<\/p>\n
It read:<\/p>\n
\u201cSo this morning The Sun decided to publish something, without any attempt at contacting me or my team, that is very personal and, by doing so, have attempted to tarnish a truly special time in my life. I won\u2019t let that happen.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m over the moon to announce that Eiri are I pregnant, we are expecting our baby in September. I wanted to release this news next week when we are having our scan and will find out if it\u2019s a boy or a girl but that has been taken completely out of our control.<\/span><\/strong>
\nPlease don\u2019t believe everything you read as this story is far from accurate.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
“I already feel the overwhelming love that I have for our child and nothing will take that away from me. I cannot wait to become a father and the challenges and joy it will bring!”<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
