Danielle already has daughter Mimi, 12, and son Hendrix, nine, from a previous relationship and welcomed child number three with her partner Ty Maynard.
Mel previously admitted she has missed out on her sister's other children's lives as they were estranged for a decade, but they have since patched things up.
The siblings both appeared on This Morning last month to discuss their 10-year feud, as well as Mel's relationship with ex-husband Stephen Belafonte.
Talking about how they became estranged, Mel claimed her marriage was 'emotionally traumatic' and said Stephen would email nasty things to her family and pretend to be her.

Sitting alongside her lookalike sibling, she said: 'I was in a 10-year marriage. Not the nicest marriage. I got very isolated from friends and family.
'I was in a coercive and not nice relationship. One of the things happens is you get cut off from friends and family. It was emotionally traumatic.'
The sisters said they used to be inseparable and remained close even when Mel first tied the knot with Stephen in 2007.
Danielle said: 'A lot of the close friends and people who worked for you got pushed to the side. It was done gradually. We were the last ones to go. Me, my mum and dad.'
Danielle previously spoke to new! magazine about her struggle to conceive this time around.
She said: 'We've wanted this for a while but it took longer than we expected - six months of really trying - and we became impatient so we got a puppy.'
Although they were hoping to have a child, Danielle admitted she was still shocked when she learned she was pregnant.
She said: 'Even though we were trying, I was still shocked. One morning I started to feel quite sick, so I did a test - well, I did about five - and that was it. I was pregnant!'
