Lliana Bird has confirmed that she is expecting her first child.
The 36-year-old radio host and her ‘Great British Bake Off’ presenter partner Noel Fielding will welcome a baby later this year and the star took to Instagram to show off her baby bump.
Posting a picture of herself boxing, Lliana wrote: "Thank you @hollyactive for keeping (well, getting) me fit and active! Grown to absolutely love boxing this past year and Holly has been the driving force behind that. I’m literally one of the naturally laziest people i know, but even i’ve been loving the boxing once or twice a week and if i can do it you defo can!!! (sic)."
She added the hashtags "preggoboxing" and "badassbumps".
Her trainer Holly commented: "Nearly 8 months pregnant and you are still smashing it, literally!"
Lliana and Noel, 44, have been together for seven years.
Noel’s close friend, Kasabian rocker Serge Pizzorno, recently confirmed his pal’s happy news and said Noel is going to be a fantastic father.
He told the Daily Mirror: "He’s going to be the best dad. It’s going to be amazing. I can’t wait."
Meanwhile, Noel previously revealed it was Serge who convinced him to accept a presenting role on ‘Great British Bake Off’.
He said: "One of my friends, Serge from Kasabian, said, ‘Oh, you should get on this. It’s great. I love it’.
"I watched it back to back and really enjoyed it. I just thought, this is such a nice vibe and I really loved it. I didn’t bake or anything, I was just a big fan.
"When they asked me to do it, I was really staggered. I just thought, this is too big an opportunity [to pass up]. Also, I really wanted to work with [co-presenter] Sandi Toksvig because I think Sandi was already in. I thought we’d be good together comedically."
