Newcastle United WAG Chana Kesselaar has shared a heart-warming video to social media, from when she discovered she was pregnant with her first child with Newcastle United defender Sven Botman. 

In the black and white video which was posted to TikTok and Instagram, Chana can be seen holding a pregnancy test, and putting her hand over her mouth in shock.

She then shows two pregnancy tests, both of which have a positive result. 

Further clips include Chana’s bump, pregnancy scan video and the cutting of a celebration cake which is decorated with flowers and an outline of tiny baby feet.

The video comes after the Dutch couple made the announcement that they were expecting a child together, which they made via Instagram. 

24-year-old Botman has been in a relationship with fashion stylist and illustrator Chana since 2016, and the pair will celebrate their 8 year anniversary in August of this year.

In a joint post from both of their Instagram accounts, the couple shared images of themselves, where Chana’s baby bump is on display and Botman wraps his arms around her and the bump from behind. 

The Dutch couple tend to keep their relationship fairly private, only sharing things with their social media followers once in a while. 

Although they have shared their exciting pregnancy news, they have kept information regarding the pregnancy such as the due date and gender for their baby under wraps for now.

They simply captioned their announcement post with two emojis, which were a white heart and a teddy bear.

Botman’s fellow players commented on the post, with congratulatory messages and emojis, including; Matt Targett, Anthony Gordon, Bruno Guimarães, Loris Karius, Allan Saint-Maximin, Joelinton, Paul Dummett, and Joe Willock. 

Other well wishes to the couple came from fellow Newcastle United WAGS, Juliette Pastore (who is the girlfriend of Sandro Tonali) and Alexia Notto (who is the wife of Miguel Almiron), as well as co-owner of Newcastle United Mehdrad Ghodoussi.
