Father Jack! Wilshere's ex-girlfriend pregnant with England star's child
Jack's the dad: England and Arsenal ace Wilshere (right) is set to become a father
England star Jack Wilshere is to become a father at the age of 19.
The Arsenal midfielder has been told that his ex-girlfriend is pregnant - although the pair recently ended their three-year relationship.
Wilshere, who is emerging as England's hottest young star, is reported to be 'shocked but delighted' by the news.
He split with mum-to-be Lauren Neal, 22, at the start of the year but he is already making plans with his former partner.
A friend of the pair told The Sun: 'They're both delighted. It took time to sink in as it wasn't exactly planned.

'Although Jack and Lauren are not technically together at the moment, they're still close. He has vowed to stand by her and support her.
'At the moment they're living apart but Jack's very keen to see as much of the baby as possible when it is born.'
Lauren, who works as a hairdresser, is due to give birth in August. Her family lives close to Wilshere's in Hertfordshire.
Wilshere, who earns £50,000-a-week at Arsenal has been superb for his club and country since securing regular first-team football this season.
