Ryan already has two children, a son, Zach, 17, and a daughter, Libby, 19, from his 10-year marriage to Stacey Cooke.
Zara also has a daughter from a previous marriage.
According to insiders, Ryan’s ex-wife Stacey, who divorced him in 2017, has also given her blessing, as have their children.
“Ryan was nervous about what his kids would think, but they’ve gotten to know Zara over the years and really like her,” a source said The sun.
They are happy because they know he is happy.
But they joked that he would struggle with the early mornings and lack of sleep.
‘Ryan and Zara are thrilled at the prospect of becoming parents again. They have a very strong, loving relationship and are building a long-term future together.’
Another source told the publication: ‘Stacey is positive about Zara.
“She and Ryan have been through a lot, but they’ve moved on and she’s only interested in him being happy because that’s what makes him a good father to their kids. There’s no animosity.”

Stacey and Ryan divorced in 2017 after it was revealed that he had had an eight-year affair with his brother’s wife, Natasha.
His family members cut off contact with him when the news broke, with his father saying he was “ashamed” of his son, while his brother Rhodri made headlines after appearing in a Paddy Power advert mocking the former Manchester United player.
The marriage survived the affair – as well as Ryan’s cheating on Big Brother star Imogen Thomas – but they split in 2016.
According to family lawyers Leiper Gupta, the divorce is said to have cost Ryan £20million, but the couple’s lawyers said they remained “good friends”.
