In the clip, which was also shared on social media, PewDiePie, 33, and Marzia, 30, are seen posing with four positive pregnancy tests which they took to be sure, before cutting to a clip of the influencer explaining that he was waiting in their car for Marzia to finish her doctor’s appointment.

Viewers are then treated to the couple’s pregnancy journey so far, including shots of Marzia’s growing baby bump and their beloved dog doting on the mum-to-be, clearly aware that they’ll be joined by a baby soon.

The video ends with a baby scan and Marzia’s due date: ‘July 2023.’

Leading the stream of congratulations was the couple’s longtime friend and fellow YouTuber Zoe Sugg, who wrote: ‘Ahhh guys this is so exciting! Congratulations.’
