Martha Kalifatidis<\/a> and Michael Brunelli<\/a> have shared their gender reveal on social media \u2013 which was nearly derailed by their cheeky son Lucius.<\/p>\n

The Married At First Sight couple, who met on the 2019 season of the reality show, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share two videos showing the moment they found out the gender of their baby on the way<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, the moment was nearly ruined when their son Lucius, two, was tasked with telling them whether it was a boy or a girl \u2013 and he blurted out the wrong answer.<\/p>\n

‘We gave my uncle the sealed envelope, he told Looch\u2026 thoughts?’ they captioned the post.<\/p>\n

The black-and-white clip showed Martha’s uncle Enzo, who had been given the important information in an envelope, guiding little Lucius back to his parents to break the news.<\/p>\n

Clearly excited, Martha, 37, and Michael, 33, went about urging their son to spill the beans.<\/p>\n

\"Martha <\/p>\n

Martha Kalifatidis and Michael Brunelli have finally shared their gender reveal on social media – and it was nearly derailed by their cheeky son. All pitcured<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

The Married At First Sight couple took to Instagram on Wednesday to share two videos showing the moment they found out the gender of their baby on the way<\/p>\n

‘What did Enzo say?’ the couple asked their son, as Martha added: ‘Tell me the secret Enzo told you!’<\/p>\n

The couple even offered Lucius chocolates and lollies, but he wouldn’t budge.<\/p>\n

Lucius remained tight-lipped, giggling while Martha and Michael tried to coax him.<\/p>\n

Finally, when asked again, Lucius opened his mouth, blurting out that it was a boy.<\/p>\n

‘Is it a boy?’ Michael asked the family, while Martha pressed, ‘What is it?’\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘It’s a girl!’ Martha’s Uncle Enzo replied, prompting the family to jump up and celebrate.<\/p>\n

‘Michael wanted a girl,’ one of the family members said in the background as the happy parents embraced.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The MAFS golden couple took to Instagram last month to reveal they were expecting baby number two<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"However, <\/p>\n

However, the moment was nearly ruined after their two-year-old son Lucius was tasked with telling them if it was a boy or a girl – and he named the wrong one<\/p>\n

Martha posted a short video of her toddler son planting a kiss on her growing bump.<\/p>\n

In her caption, the former reality star, who battled hyperemesis gravidarum – a severe form of morning sickness – during her first pregnancy, hinted that she is again unwell.<\/p>\n

‘Knocked up n’ knocked out. Will be back bigger and better soon\u2026 fingers crossed!’ she wrote alongside the clip.<\/p>\n

Martha and Michael first met on MAFS in 2019 and got engaged two years later, but have yet to marry.<\/p>\n
