This is the touching moment a woman told her pregnant best friend she was also pregnant.

Summer Hobbs-Rex, 26, told best pal Ashleigh O'Donoghue, 25, her big news on January 14.

And Summer was then left delighted when, two days later, Ashleigh said the same thing.

Cute video shows Summer opening a box with a baby onesie in - and the moment she realises what the clothing item means.

The nail technician from Swineshead, Lincs., said: "I was just so overwhelmed by the news.

"Ashleigh had just given me a pregnancy journal so there had already been tears that day - then the box came out.

"There were a lot of hormones going on."

The pair have been best friends since they were students seven years ago, and have been inseparable ever since.

Ashleigh arranged to visit Summer under the guise of making boxes that would serve as invitations for her friends to be her bridesmaids.

She then asked Summer to be her maid of honour - and hid several baby onesies in her box by way of announcing her pregnancy.

Ashleigh, a marketing and operations manager from Rugby, Warks., said: "As soon as I found out I was pregnant my first though was: Summer is going to die.

"I was so careful when I planned it out, I wanted her to be alone when she found out.

"The plan was to do bridesmaids boxes together, I pulled out her box and she said: 'Oh! You've already done everything

Initially Summer was confused by the onesies, thinking that they were hers, but when Ashleigh asked her "do you get it?" She understood.

Summer said: "She asked me if I got it and my brain clicked."

The pair are overjoyed that they are able to share the experience together, they hope that their babies will become best friends just as they are.

Summer said: "It's amazing, I feel closer than ever to Ash, I can't wait, it's going to be the best thing ever, I just think we're going to have two mini uses running around.

"We were really close anyway but these are massive changes that we're going to go through together.

Ashleigh added: "When I found out that Summer was pregnant, I was happy, but I was worried that our relationship was going to change.

"She was going into the new phase first and our priorities were going to be completely different, but now we're doing it together."
