During a live segment on Fox FM's Fifi, Fev & Byron, Brendan said they first suspected Alex was pregnant when she was 'really sick' on a recent holiday. 

'It all happened when we went to America over Easter,' the retired footy star, 37, said. 'Alex was really sick, she thought she was jet lagged. I didn't think anything of it.'

Brendan joked that he 'didn't think it worked anymore' and was taken by surprise when his beautician fiancée showed him a positive pregnancy test.

'We got back... and I was sitting on the couch watching the basketball. Alex came in and sat down and she had that look that I'd done something wrong,' he explained.
