The 27-year-old model has announced she's expecting her first child with boyfriend Kwame Ferreira, and has shared the news through her own website, Impossible.com.

She wrote: "The first known impossible baby is being born!

"I met Kwame when I was in the process of developing Impossible and he offered the most profound gift, to help build the platform.

"After working together for a long time Kwame and I fell in love, and I am very happy to share our news that we are expecting our first child together..."

What's more, Lily posted a picture of a dinosaur and a post-it note, which read: "I am having a baby!"

The announcement comes shortly after Lily - who previously dated actor Jude Law - attended the ELLE Style Awards, where she won the H&M Conscious Award, which was presented to her by American actress Olivia Wilde.

The prize was recognition of Lily's effort to promote ethical fashion, which included launching her ethical knitwear label, The North Circular, in 2009.

On the night of the awards, however, there was no indication that she was expecting her first child.
