British television chef Jamie Oliver and his wife, Jools, happily announced recently that they were expecting their third child. Jamie and Jools have two daughters, Poppy Honey, 6, and Daisy Boo, 5, and have been trying for a few years to have a third. Jools suffers from polycystic ovary syndrome and had to use IVF to conceive the couple’s first child. Daisy was conceived naturally, but Jools used fertility drug Clomid to conceive the newest one. And Jamie has made no secret that deep down, he wants a boy and will evidently go to great lengths to have one.
Jamie confessed that he wore a frozen nappy (diaper) to boost their chances of having a boy. Jamie said he’d heard that temperature could improve his and Jools’ chances of conceiving a boy.
He said: “I don’t know what sex it is yet. I know a lot of people say I keep talking about having a boy.
“And, well if I had a choice then it would be a boy – but I want to just make it clear that I’m happy whatever the big man gives me, as long as it’s healthy.”
He added: “I’ve tried quite a few things, I found out from a specialist that it’s about temperature, temperature of the balls.
“So what I did is I bought an adult nappy, soaked it in water, froze it, cut a hole for the c**k and we made love.”
It seems that Jamie probably didn’t intend to make this confession as he added on TV show Friday Night with Jonathan Ross: “I actually didn’t plan on having this conversation Jonathan.”

Jamie Oliver speaking with Jonathan Ross… that would be an interesting interview.
Jamie was said to be looking into adoption if they didn’t have a boy this time, but Jamie says that while he doesn’t rule it out, there are no immediate plans. But the couple does admire the Jolie-Pitts and their family.
He said: ‘I did say I think it’s an incredible thing for people to do. I wouldn’t rule it out but I am not in talks or anything.’
The British kitchen guru started the rumour mill running this week by admiring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s brood of adopted children.
Jamie, who has cooked for Jolie and Pitt, said: ‘If I can’t produce a boy I will have to adopt one. I would consider it.
‘Adoption is such a selfless act and they have a lovely family environment. It’s humbling and beautiful to see.
‘Jools would like to have another child but there are so many vulnerable orphans out there. Jools and I need to sit down and have a very serious conversation about it.’

Jamie and Jools have been together a long time, they met when they were 15 and have been married for eight years, and they want a big family. I wouldn’t be surprised, with the fertility issues they have, if we don’t hear about them adopting in the next couple years. Rumors fly about the state of their marriage because of Jamie’s work schedule, but they insist nothing could be further from the truth. Jools goes as far as to say that she’s the perfect wife for someone who works as hard as Jamie because she prefers being in the background, taking care of the kids and home and making sure everyone is happy.
Jamie and Jools’ third child is due April 1.
