The news of the pregnancy comes about the same time when the couple also launched ‘Mike and Perri‘, their joint YouTube channel.

Edwards, who is the CEO of Aireyys, a lifestyle brand centered around fashion and cigars, tied the knot with the British track and field athlete in 2018.

He had last year recounted his struggles to represent Nigeria at the 2018 Commonwealth games before rising to spotlight after emerging runner-up of the 2019 edition of the reality show.
