Scotland’s First Minister has announced he and his wife are expecting a baby this summer, saying they are “delighted” to be adding to their family.
Humza Yousaf said his wife Nadia El-Nakla is due to give birth in July.
It will be the first time a Scottish First Minister has had a child while in office.
The couple already have two children – their daughter Amal is four and Yousaf is stepfather to 14-year-old Maya.
Yousaf has previously spoken publicly about miscarriages the couple have suffered.
As he spoke about his desire to improve miscarriage care last September, he revealed he and El-Nakla have lost four pregnancies – “two before our daughter was born and another two after”.
