Manchester City star Jack Grealish will become an uncle this summer after his younger sister announced she is pregnant.
Kiera Grealish, 22, will give birth to her first child with her boyfriend Josh Murphy in August, having announced the news on social media.
It comes a week after they celebrated their fourth anniversary. The couple wrote on Instagram: ‘Baby Murphy… a dream come true, half me and half you.’
As well as Kiera, Jack is also close to his other sister, Hollie, who was born with cerebral palsy.
Hollie commented on the announcement post that she “can’t wait” to meet her niece or nephew later this year.
