Simon Thomas said he feels ‘blessed’ as he prepares to welcome his second child with his wife Derrina.

Simon, 51, married Derrina in 2021, following the death of his first wife, Gemma, to blood cancer. Gemma and Simon share son Ethan, 12.

Simon and Derrina share daughter Talitha, 15-months, – and she is due to give birth to their second child together in a ‘few weeks’.

In a new interview he has told how he feels ‘really fortunate having the life I do’ despite losing his first wife. 

He told The Mirror: ‘The baby is due in a few weeks’ time, so quite close to the end of the ­football season.
