BETHANY Hamilton, the pro surfer who lost her arm in a 2003 shark attack, has announced she is going to be a mum.
The 25-year-old, who earned the nickname 'Soul Surfer' after inspiring millions with her positive attitude after the attack, is five months pregnant.
In a joint video announcement with surfer husband Adam Dirks the pair said they had a "baby on board".
"In baby terms I'm about 22 weeks, which is about halfway there," Hamilton explained. "It's been a pretty crazy last four months finding out that we're gonna be parents. Life's kinda gonna be changing and kinda just starting to prep for bringing a new little being into the world. It's all really exciting.
"I've been surfing throughout my whole pregnancy," she said. "I plan to surf as long as I can. Once the belly's pretty big maybe just like mellow it out and spend more time swimming and just enjoying the ocean and doing other activities."

Dirks also revealed a bit more news about the pregnancy.
"We found out it's a boy so we're looking for boy names. We've got a few in mind."
Hamilton and Dirks married back in August 2013 during a ceremony in Hawaii near their home.
