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.

Inside England captain Leah Williamson's romance with Miss USA winner Elle Smith
England captain Leah Williamson will be leading the Lionesses to hopeful victory in the Women's Euro 2025 finals tonight. Leah's England will take on former rivals Spain in St Jakob-Park in Basel, Switzerland, two years after losing out on their World Cup attempt. All eyes will be on the England team, including 29-year-old team captain Leah, who was permanently appointed to the post by England manager Sarina Wiegman in 2022. But what do we know about Leah's life away from the pitch? Does she have a girlfriend or partner? When not leading her team to victory, Leah has made headlines for her rumoured romance with former Miss USA Elle Smith. Here's all we know about Leah Williamson's relationship with the 27-year-old beauty pageant winner. American journalist and beauty pageant contestant Elle Smith was crowned Miss USA in 2021. In the run-up to the competition, she was named Miss Kentucky USA that same year, making her only the second woman from Kentucky to win Miss USA. She went on to represent the United States at Miss Universe, ultimately finishing in the Top 10, losing out to India's Harnaaz Sandhu. Although they became romantically linked in 2024, Leah and Elle have not officially confirmed whether they are in a relationship. Speculation that the pair were 'soft-launching' a relationship began in March, when Elle posted a video of her and Leah floating in the ocean together on a paddleboard. This came accompanied by the caption 'happy birthday my love x,' to which Leah responded with a series of emojis. Since then, they have continued to pop up all over each other's social media, including a picture of them celebrating England's 6-0 win against Portugal, back in May. In the black-and-white picture, Leah sits on Elle's lap, with the former Miss USA titleholder's arms around her. In response to the picture, Leah commented: 'We did it🥹🥹🥹' Last month, Elle shared a series of snapshots from their holiday to Majorca together – many of which saw the pair looking very loved-up indeed. These images included a snap of Elle and Leah on a paddleboard together, as well as shots of them all dressed up and headed out for dinner. Leah shared her own carousel of images on her Instagram page, too, which included a number of grabs of Elle smiling and contented. Leah also showed her appreciation when Elle shared a series of snaps posing in her Skims bikini while on holiday in Jamaica for her birthday last month. 'I have no words,' Leah wrote in the comments to the post – to which Elle responded: 'all yours.' More Trending She then commented again soon afterwards, writing: 'Just come for a second viewing.' Elle has shared a message of support ahead of tonight's final, posting a snap of herself in a t-shirt to her Instagram Stories. This wasn't any old England t-shirt either. The message emblazoned on the white tee's front in red writing? 'Live, Laugh, Leah.' Got a story?
