The couple married in 2022 after meeting four years earlier and have frequently shared family milestones with their supporters online.
Last year, they also endured an anxious period after identical twins Roma and Darla were briefly rushed to hospital following febrile convulsions caused by a cold, though both girls made a full recovery.
The happy family news follows a turbulent start to the year for Mr Skinner after he publicly addressed the controversy surrounding his exit from Strictly Come Dancing.
Despite the attention surrounding the BBC competition, the businessman insisted his focus remained firmly on his wife and children.
