The former NRL star, 35, shared the news to Instagram on Sunday afternoon alongside footage from the couple's gender reveal party, and a gallery of heartwarming images.

Josh captioned the post with some moving words. 

'When I was a young boy I had so many dreams, but my main one was to be a father and have a beautiful little family,' he began.

'Today Ciarne and I found out we are having a little baby girl Reynolds. I promise to look after you, protect you forever and always put you first,' he continued. 

'I can't explain how happy I am to bring this little queen into this world with a woman who I absolutely adore and love.

'Can't wait to be the best parents with you my darling. And to our little darling angel girl, dad can't wait to give you your first ever cuddle see you in November,' he concluded, before adding the hashtag #reynoldsfamily.

It wasn't long before the couple's news was inundated with well wishers. 

'Such wonderful news,' wrote Better Homes and Gardens star Joh Griggs.

Bulldogs star Weis Amer wrote, 'Congrats brother,' as Jacob Kiraz said, 'Yes my brother,' alongside a series of red love hearts.

Player Declan Casey added, 'Congrats guys so happy for you both,' as Billy Walters followed it up with: 'Congrats grubby how good.'

Josh was previously in a relationship with controversial ex-WAG Arabella del Busso, who famously faked a series of pregnancy with the former sports star

After meeting Josh on Instagram in December 2018, del Busso, 32, enjoyed a one-night-stand with the sports star before claiming she was pregnant with twins.

She later told him she'd miscarried, before claiming she was pregnant again in March 2019, only to miscarry again.

Busso claimed to have been pregnant once again in June. 

During their relationship, Josh claims she lied about her mother's death, and claimed she had cancer to dupe him and other former boyfriends into giving her money.

He also claims he gave her more than $4,000 for funeral expenses.

It emerged her mother was in fact alive during a 60 Minutes investigation.

Del Busso was sentenced to 20 months behind bars earlier this year after she pleaded guilty to two counts of stealing as an employee between September 2019 and February 2020.

She was working as a receptionist for Rheumatology Specialist Care at their practices in Kogarah and Randwick in Sydney's south when she devised a scheme to steal tens of thousands of dollars from the business.

On multiple occasions, the court documents reveal the ex-girlfriend of former NRL star Josh Reynolds told clients the EFTPOS machine wasn't working and asked them to pay in cash instead.

'Unfortunately our EFTPOS facilities are down so it will be a cash transaction today of $170 sorry for the inconvenience,' she said in a text message sent out to 18 patients.

Del Busso fleeced $35,785 from the medical centre's Kogarah facility and $16,565 from the Randwick office over five months before a manager noticed the financial discrepancies.

The court documents show the lingerie model had deposited $18,215 into her personal accounts.

Before her incarceration, Del Busso was working as a lingerie model and celebrity boxer.
