Charlotte Church and her rugby star boyfriend Gavin Henson are adopting two pet pigs.

The couple ordered the animals after taking their daughter Ruby to visit the South Devon farm where they are bred.

Chris Murray, who created the breed of £250 pets 15 years ago, told The Sun: "They all fell in love with the little pigs.

"Charlotte got on well with the animals. I could tell they liked her. They make great pets. I always say, 'A pig is for life, not just for breakfast.'"

Church will return to host a third series of Channel 4's The Charlotte Church Show in the summer.

The singer has been taking time out following the birth of first daughter Ruby last September.
