The loved up couple have now taken to Instagram to give their followers an update on their fertility journey.
With Sophie sat on Jordan's knee she said: "So me and Jordan have been waiting to do this video.
"Because we were waiting because we wanted to see where we're gonna be at in our fertility journey."
The couple then went on to explain they felt that it was the best time to speak about it.
Sophie continued: "So not long ago, a couple of months ago, we got the first bit of news.
"I had something called Ureaplasma but Ureplasma is like an embedded bacteria that can cause infertility and I knew nothing about this.
"And in the UK they never tested for it. And this testing that we've been getting is more like immunology testing.
"And they test for everything. And Ureaplasma would have caused a lot of infertility anyways."
Jordan added: "That was very a simple fix, which we couldn't believe."
Sophie agreed than said: "Now I was a little bit worried, how do I get rid of this? And that was literally a course of antibiotics."

Jordan added that they couldn't have sex for two weeks while Sophie was on the antibiotics.
But the couple still had some unanswered questions as to why it wasn't happening once the two weeks were up.
So the pair then got their bloods done in the UK and found out they are a partial DQ alpha match which also affects implantation.
But they explained that there was even more hope as that could be treated too.
Alongside the video the pair wrote: "It's been a long road and looking for answers comes with so many stresses and worries.
"We can now say finally after over 2 years we have got some answers on our fertility journey!
"I was recommended Fertilysis from a few girls who have had amazing success stories so I thought let's give it a try!
"We found out firstly that I had a bacteria called Ureaplasma that causes infertility - why no one ever tested me for this in Uk I do not no.
"But a course of antibiotics and it was gone. We then had our bloods sent off to see what's going on in our immunology and we got even more answers!
"We found out we are a partial DQ alpha match which also affects implantation. But there is even more hope as this can be treated too!
"I just wish we knew about @fertilysis sooner. I know now we are in the best hands and the outcome is going to be amazing.
"Finally feeling hopeful and can finally see some light after a challenging few years.
"Next it's off to Athens to get the next batch of treatments."
Meanwhile, The Sun recently revealed the real reason Sophie, walked away from hit reality show Geordie Shore.
The star had been in negotiations with the network for several months, hoping to secure a pay rise that reflected her longstanding contribution to the show.
However, despite numerous discussions and back-and-forths, the two sides ultimately couldn't reach an agreement.
We previously told how Sophie had quit the series - just weeks after Scotty T was axed.

Olly Murs has a surprising reaction after losing his wedding ring
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Olly Murs made a very relatable confession during his appearance on Hits Radio Breakfast Show. The pop icon, 41, spoke to fellow X Factor star Fleur East as well as her co-hosts Will Best and James Barr on their regular morning quiz, Useless. He confessed that the thing he was most useless at right now was 'putting his wedding ring back on' and revealed he had lost it just days after celebrating his second wedding anniversary. 'I've had a real nightmare this morning, I can't find it, I think I went to the gym and left it, so I've misplaced it,' he said rather calmly. He seemed far from panicked, however, admitting that his wife, Amelia, who he married in July 2023, isn't usually bothered whether he is wearing his ring or not. 'The thing is, the missus is great – she doesn't actually bother if I don't have it on, but she just likes to remind me 'oh you haven't got it on!'' he continued. 'But at the moment, as we sit here now, I have no idea where it is and that's a bit of a worrying thing.' The Dear Darlin' hitmaker also opened up about becoming a dad of two after the couple announced they were expecting again. Olly and Amelia are also parents to 16-month-old Nova, who they welcomed last year. 'I am really calm about it all,' he said. 'Amelia is in absolute meltdown at the moment! It is a bit mental, but I'll just deal with it when it comes.' He went on to say that being a dad and a husband is 'everything' to him. His admission comes days after Olly went missing from his own radio show after partying way too hard the night before. He hit the town to celebrate the release of his latest single, Save Me, but failed to show up to present his breakfast show with Towie's Mark Wright. Mark began: 'So if you've been listening to Heart this morning, you'll know that my co-host Mr Olly Murs isn't in.' In a clip shared to the station's Instagram, he then shared footage of Olly partying in a busy bar or pub. 'No one can find him. Didn't know where he was. And someone has just sent this into the studio. Him out last night, caught on CCTV in a bar or a pub,' Mark explained. 'So he's obviously out, had a late night and not turned up to the studio. Very professional Olly Murs, I like it. Yeah, very good.' Back home, Olly took to Instagram to reflect on the night before. More Trending In an Instagram Story, he wrote: 'Last night was mad! Might've gone a bit too hard while celebrating the new single coming out with the boys… 'Also seem to have lost my wallet if anyone finds it.' He then shared Heart Radio's clip of Mark, with the caption: 'Can't believe I missed the show today. Man does my head hurt!' So if anyone finds Olly's wedding ring or wallet, hit him up. Got a story?

Armed robber who dated Towie star is ordered to pay back just £25 after tying up and threatening to kill mother and daughter in terrifying £220,000 Sandbanks mansion raid
An armed robber who dated a Towie star has been ordered to pay back just £25 to a mother and daughter who he tied up and threatened to kill in a terrifying £220,000 Sandbanks mansion raid. Career criminal Kirk Holdrick, also known as Aaron Evans, and his accomplice Ashley Fulton held both Kerry and Emily Aitchison at gunpoint during the horrifying incident at their luxury £2.5million Poole harbour home in February 2023. In 2022, Holdrick went on a string of dates with former The Only Way is Essex Star Hannah Voyan, who was axed from the show after debuting in its 30th series. The couple were seen publicly holding hands while leaving a restaurant in Mayfair, London, alongside other Towie co-stars including Chloe Brockett. Now, it has been revealed that Holdrick will have to pay a mere £25 in compensation to the traumatised Aitchison family, despite the pair making a collective total of £221,348 from their heinous crime. During the petrifying raid, Holdrick and Fulton tied up Ms Aitchison and threatened to burn Emily, 22, with an iron and shoot her mother in front of her if she didn't open the safe. But brave Ms Aitchison, 55, called the two thieves 'scum of the earth' and refused to give them the code. In just 30 minutes, the pair ransacked the property, fleeing with £220K worth of stolen luxury goods, including a unique Patek Phillipe watch. While they were never recovered, the pair made a catalogue of errors that eventually led police to their door. But Holdrick, 43, has just £26.66 to pay as compensation to the Aitchison family while Fulton, also 43, has £4,156, a hearing at Bournemouth Crown Court has heard. While the courts can only seize available assets from convicted criminals, the Crown Prosecution Service can revisit the order if either Holdrick or Fulton come into additional money in the future. On February 21, 2023, the career criminals deliberately targeted the home of Mark Aitchison, the chief executive officer of Colten Care, which owns 21 care homes in the south of England. His wife Kerry, a personal trainer and physio, was the only one home when the pair knocked at around 1pm. To gain entry to the home in an exclusive cul-de-sac the pair posed as police officers investigating a rape. Then, after the door was answered, they barged their way in and bound Ms Aitchison with cable ties and threatened to kill her if she didn't give them the code to the safe. Around half an hour later, the pair seemed 'on the cusp of leaving' when daughter Emily, an estate agent, came home on her lunch break. One of the men held a gun to her head, dragged her by the hair and threatened to shoot her and burn her with an iron. Emily bravely entered the code wrong twice and then told them if she did it wrong a third time it would trigger the alarm. The panicked robbers eventually fled the scene and Emily was able to run to a neighbour's house to raise the alarm and then cut her mother free. The pair were eventually caught after their DNA was found all over the property and the get away car, registered to Fulton's address, was discovered on CCTV. Mobile phone records later showed Fulton had Googled the exact rare model of Patek Philippe watch they had stolen two hours after the heist. Police also found online orders made by Fulton for police ID wallets and lanyards the pair used to trick their way into the Aitchison home. Holdrick had been given a life sentence for armed robberies in 2004. He had escaped from prison and carried out a gunpoint raid on a jewellery store in Essex two days later and then an armed robbery on a Securicor van. Branded a 'dangerous offender' who posed a significant risk of harm to the public by a judge who bailed him at Bournemouth Crown Court, Holdrick was out of prison on licence at the time of the Sandbanks raid. The court heard he had 22 previous convictions for 110 offences. Holdrick was arrested at a ferry terminal in Birkenhead on April 18 with a Rolex watch and a fake passport. Fulton and his girlfriend Lacey Langton, were arrested by armed police at a Heathrow hotel on May 14. In their room, police found thousands in cash, four mobile phones and a bag of watches and jewellery, none of which was connected to the robbery. Outlining the negative impacts of the horrifying robbery on her emotionally, Ms Aitchison previously told the court: 'Home should feel a safe place, a sanctuary, a haven. For me it's a crime scene where I thought myself and my daughter would be killed. 'I am a mere shadow of my former self because of this violent intrusion. Gone is the positive, vibrant outgoing woman and in her place is someone I don't recognise.' Meanwhile, Judge William Mousley KC said that both Kerry and Emily Aitchison 'were subjected to a terrifying ordeal' that had left 'severe psychological harm'. Judge Mousley praised the mother and daughter for their 'courageous' personal statements which 'powerfully expressed' the impact the ordeal had on them. To Holdrick, he said: 'You are a dangerous offender, you pose a significant risk of serious harm to the public. Your previous offences and the facts of these offences, the high level of danger you impose, which will in my judgment remain indefinitely, all support the imposition of a sentence of life imprisonment. 'However I must consider the available alternatives.' James Hay, defending, insisted that Holdrick was 'already serving a life sentence so the public can be adequately protected without the need to impose a second such sentence.' In September last year, Holdrick pleaded guilty to two robberies, possession of an imitation firearm and one count of fraud for a false passport. Judge Mousley decided a second life sentence for Holdrick's role in the heist would not be appropriate but made an extended sentence of 16 years - 12 in custody and four years on licence. Holdrick would need to go before a parole board before he could be released for the previous life sentence. Meanwhile, Fulton admitted two counts of robbery, possession of an imitation firearm, three offences of fraud and three of possessing ID documents with improper intent, one of possession of an article for use in fraud and possession of cocaine. He was handed a life sentence, with a minimum term of nine years and 192 days before he can be considered for parole. Langton, from Wareham, Dorset, admitted perverting the course of justice and possessing an identity document with improper intent. She picked up false ID documents for Fulton in his son's name and was arrested with him at a Heathrow hotel in May last year. The 23-year-old was jailed for 14 months for her part in the crime.

Jay-Z teams up with Caesars and SL Green to bid for huge Times Square Casino project
MEGASTAR JAY-Z joined forces with some of the biggest names in the casino business, looking to pitch a Caesars Palace Times Square casino project in New York. The rapper - real name Shawn Carter - was among several attendees to sit in front of the Community Advisory Committee (CAC) and bid for one of three $500 million downstate licenses. 1 The Roc Nation co-founder was representing a partnership alongside Caesars Palace and SL Green Properties and pledged $250million in benefits to the community as part of their pitch to convert an existing office on Broadway. They face stiff competition though with EIGHT applications in total having been submitted to the New York State Gaming Commission. Jay-Z, who grew up in Brooklyn, says the location was "perfect" for the partnership group and says the introduction of a casino resort would only "fulfil and enhance" the area, which he likened to huge landmarks around the world. The 150,000-square-foot gambling hall would boast 1000 casino rooms, a Caesars Sportsbook, four restaurants associated with high-profile chefs and a spa. Concerns over the venue becoming the main attraction to Broadway have been rebuffed by the entrepreneur, who insists they would only act as an 'additive' to a tourist spot which entices over 50 million tourists per year. During the presentation, Jay-Z said: "It's our chance to change the narrative and create something all around the world. "If we treat Times Square with the love and the attention that it requires, it can fulfill its promise. 'This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I believe, to support something that's homegrown. 'As we hear a lot of talk about community, we are the community. We're from this community. 'We're not coming to compete with Broadway. We're coming to be additive. "Anything that we've done in the past, we've always included the community. We've never excluded the community.' The group's proposition also indicated a forecasted $7 billion in direct tax revenue and $26.7 billion in local economic activity in the first 10 years. Roc Nation also stated they'd supported more than five million people with social impacts worth more than $78 million. More than 3,000 construction jobs would be created as a result if they were awarded a license, and the 3,800 permanent jobs it would create would be 'mostly filled by New Yorkers'.
