Baby due in August
Manx three-time Winter Olympian Zoe Gillings-Brier has announced she is expecting her first child.
Zoe says the news came as a surprise to her and husband Dan Brier.
The Isle of Man snowboardcrosser returned to the UK for tests after she developed pregnancy symptoms a few weeks ago.
The baby should arrive in mid-August and Zoe is making it clear she will return to action and try to qualify for the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea.
