In a subsequent post, Adam shared another snippet and wrote: "Meet Alison - the heart behind Holbeache stud, as well as the incredible Suffolk Punch horses in her care."

The news that Adam was alluding to was the pregnancy of his horse, Lexy, reports Gloucestershire Live.

As he approached his horse, he said, "Come on, Alison. Let's hear the news. The suspense is killing me."

"Ok, she is in foal," Alison responded as Adam laughed, "There you go. Lexy is in foal, so she had a positive scan?".

Alison clarified that the horse has had two scans—one to confirm she is in foal and one to check her heartbeat.

"The foal is there with a heartbeat, and that is it," she declared. "That is all we can do now."

When asked about the due date of the foal, Alison revealed, "May next year."

"What a good girl," Adam beamed, patting the horse on the head.

The farmer then led Lexy back to his Cotswold farm. "As you can see, Lexy has settled back in," he told the camera.

The Countryfile star's fans were swift to react to the news, with many confessing they were moved.

One penned: "They really are a dream come true, aren't they?".

"They Are Stunning," another said, while a third remarked, "They are so beautiful."

Another person concurred, expressing their feelings with an emotional face emoji: "Absolutely Beautiful."
