Oti’s pregnancy announcement

Oti first shared the happy news that she was expecting a baby back in August. She made the announcement live on her ITV breakfast show alongside her husband.

She said: “Speaking of things that you didn’t know at home, we have a little something for all of you and we’ve been holding some good news. Are you ready? We’re having a baby!”

Oti also shared the news on Instagram, writing: “Our ‘yes’ year is getting better and better and so is our little family.”

She continued: “We feel finally ready and excited to share our wonderful news. This is new for us scarier than swimming with sharks, jumping off cliffs or even swinging from bridges but the best news we could have ever ask for.

“We love our little bundle of joy so much already… and can’t wait to see what our future will now look like as family of three plus Leo. It’s been a beautiful journey so far with close friends and family and nearly over but we have learnt a lot a long the way…. Christmas is about to get even louder.”
