Olivia Bowen, who is expecting her second child with husband Alex, sent fans into a frenzy after teasing a "huge announcement" on Instagram.
The former Love Island star replied to fans during a Q&A, hinting at filming for a new project — and all signs point to a family-focused reality series.
Olivia shared her excitement about the arrival of their second child, revealing that they are expecting a baby girl with a touching gender reveal video.
Alex, visibly excited, spoke about his own dreams of having a large family, saying, 'I never had a big family growing up, so having this baby means so much to me.'
The couple's joy was evident during the emotional gender reveal moment on the show, as they shared the news of their little girl.
Now, Olivia has announced that a new project is in the works that has been a "challenge" to keep a secret - and fans are convinced it's a new reality show.
Taking to her Instagram stories, Olivia wrote: "We have a HUGE announcement coming tomorrow. Honestly, keeping this quiet has been a challenge. Any guesses?"
One fan guessed "Bowen TV series?" to which Olivia replied, "Is that what you guys want?"
Olivia and Alex have already proven to be a hit with viewers, having fronted a string of popular shows since finding love on Love Island in 2016.
They previously starred in their own reality series, Olivia & Alex: Happily Ever After, which gave fans a glimpse into their married life and home renovations, and pulled in strong ratings for ITVBe.

The couple also fronted second-time parenthood series Olivia & Alex: Baby Steps, charting their journey into life as new mum and dad after the birth of son Abel — winning praise for their honest take on parenting.
Olivia and Alex have also dipped into the podcast world, further cementing their status as a power couple beyond Love Island.
They previously launched their own podcast "Double Dating", where they teamed up with other celeb couples to talk all things love, relationships, and parenthood.
The series was praised for its candid chats and relatable moments, with fans loving the pair's easy banter and down-to-earth vibe.

One fan guessed that the couple were teasing a new podcast in the works.
And Olivia didn't rule it out as she replied: "We've done a couple podcasts before! Would you like another???"
The TV star opened up to The Sun's Fabulous magazine about finding out she was expecting twins before Christmas, but then learning she had lost one of the babies at eight weeks.
Olivia broke down in tears as she and her husband Alex discussed the miscarriage with the Loose Women panel.
She said: 'It was such a shock. There were no symptoms to indicate anything was wrong. We went into the scan excited, thinking everything was going perfectly, but it was blindsiding when we learned that one of the babies had gone.'
She reflected on the surprising nature of the loss, especially given the absence of any warning signs, and the emotional toll it had taken on her and Alex.
Olivia added: 'I was always so positive, and when you try to be 100% positive all the time, when something bad happens, it hits even harder."
Despite the pain, Olivia found comfort in knowing that the baby she lost had been reabsorbed into her body by the 14-week mark.
She said: 'It's a tremendously sad experience, but knowing that the baby is still a part of me helps me hold on to their memory."
When asked if she would have preferred not to know about the loss, Olivia admitted, 'It's a hard question. I feel lucky to have experienced the brief moment of possibly having twins, even if it was for just a short time.'
While still grieving the loss of their baby, Olivia and Alex said they're looking forward to the future with their two-year-old son Abel, who is eager to become a big brother.
Olivia shared: 'Abel talks to the baby through my belly button. He's going to be the best big brother ever.'

Cooking with the Stars viewers want to vomit as Ekin-Su and Kelly Hoppen serve up ‘dog poo'

See where the stars went wrong in trying to create the perfect dish dog's dinner Cooking with the Stars viewers want to vomit as Ekin-Su and Kelly Hoppen serve up 'dog poo' TV fans were less than impressed with the celebrities' efforts on Cooking With The Stars comparing some efforts to vomit. The ITV show sees professional chefs mentor eight celebrities so that may create delicious dishes to be judged by the professionals. 4 Love Island's Ekin-Su battles it out on Cooking With The Stars Credit: ITV 4 She faced off against interiors expert Kelly Hoppen Credit: ITV 4 But TV viewers said their cooking made them feel sick Credit: ITV On Sunday's episode, Love Island legend Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu was put up against author and interiors expert Kelly Hoppen when they both landed in the bottom two. The women were tasked with creating chocolate eclairs alongside a strawberry and champagne granita, as their fellow celebrities and professionals watched on. They only had 50 minutes to create their dishes and seemed like disaster from the outset when both stars failed to gradually add the eggs for the choux pastry which would go on to make the body of the chocolate eclairs. Hosts Emma Willis and Tom Allen watched on in bemusement as Ekin added cream to her mixture, and the former explained her experience in the kitchen. itv GMB FEARS Huge GMB star offered just six months in new deal as ITV look to slash costs "I do know something about choux pastry, and the cream does not belong in there," Emma told Tom. Things only got worse for Ekin and Kelly as it became apparent their pastries did not seem up to scratch as they put them in the oven to cook. For viewers watching at home, the scene was equally terrifying. "That was like choosing between dog s*** and cat sick," wrote one fan on X, formerly Twitter as the women's dishes were served to the chefs for judgement. Another added: "Jesus those 'eclairs' are the worst thing I've ever seen." And a third commented: "I don't envy the chefs having to deal with those eclairs...." Jack Osbourne shares bittersweet memory of dad Ozzy in first TV appearance since Black Sabbath legend's death Kelly ultimately won the cook-off after the judges tried both their efforts in blind tasting, which meant Ekin was sent packing. She is the second celebrity to be booted off Cooking With The Stars after former Towie star Jess Wright was eliminated last week. The current season is the show's fifth season and the remaining celebrities in the competition include, Jack Osbourne, the eldest son of late rocker, Ozzy Osbourne and EastEnders alum, Natalie Cassidy. Other stars competing this year include, ex-footballer Shaun Wright-Phillips, actor and comedian Hugh Dennis and presenter Jordan North.
