Laura Whitmore is pregnant! Presenter reveals she is expecting her second child with husband Iain Stirling with sweet bump snaps

Laura Whitmore has revealed the happy news that she is pregnant.

The presenter, 40, shared that she was expecting her second child with husband Iain Stirling in an Instagram post on Wednesday evening.

She posted a series of snaps of her bump and penned: 'Instagram V Reality - Spoiler: It wasn't just a big meal mama ate. She's been cooking away! 

'I'd like to thank stretchy pants and travel sick bags.'

The couple already share a daughter called Stevie Ré, who was born in March 2021. They are fiercely private of their family life and very rarely share images of their little one.

In her pregnancy reveal post the couple looked to be enjoying a sunny getaway as in one snap she wore a cropped blue T-shirt, sunhat and bikini bottoms as she showed off her blossoming bump.

In another stylish image she wore a black and white mini dress with towering red heels.

Her friends and family were quick to congratulate her on the happy news in the comments of her post. 

Vick Hope commented: 'Huge congrats lovely Laura!!' Gaby Roslin added: 'Huge congratulations to you both my gorgeous.'

The couple were seen together just last weekend where Laura concealed her growing bump with a leather jacket while attending a performance of Cirque du Soleil's OVO at the Royal Albert Hall.

Irish host Laura welcomed her first child in 2021 with her Love Island narrator husband Iain, a daughter named Stevie Ré.

Speaking to the The Standard soon after, Laura expressed worry when it comes to the dangerous of the internet since having kids.

She said: 'Having a child definitely changes your priorities and makes you more sensitive to certain subjects.

'This was something I also had to take self-care about as well. 

'Also, when it comes to the online world and it's changing so dramatically it does make me conscious that in a few years to come I'm going to have to deal with that and it's something I can't control. So it does make me hyper-sensitive.' 

Just last year the Daily Mail revealed how Laura infuriated BBC bosses when she pulled out of Celebrity Apprentice at the last minute. 

She left the casting team in the lurch after backing out of the show's lineup, which included the likes of Big Brother host AJ Odudu, EastEnders star Jake Wood, and JLS singer JB Gill.

Lord Sugar's spin-off was to celebrate 20 years of The Apprentice as a host of famous faces took on the challenge of impressing the business mogul for charity.

But podcast host Laura ended up not being one of them after she opted out of the BBC series due to an 'unavoidable clash' in her schedule.

A TV source told Daily Mail at the time: 'Laura infuriated BBC bosses by pulling out of the Celebrity Apprentice special.  

'Of course, there can be a lot of last minute changes in television, but it was just days before filming started and the team were very much left in the lurch.

'The dates did not work for Laura and so she backed out, but many were left in an awkward position by her decision.'

Back in 2022 Laura announced that she would be leaving Love Island after three years as its presenter.

At the time she cited 'difficult' elements of the show's format as her reasons for stepping down.

Before becoming a star of the small screen, Laura successfully won her own TV contest called Pick Me MTV to become its new face of MTV news throughout the UK, Ireland and other European countries.

More recently, she was cast in the hit West End show 2:22: A Ghost Story alongside former Busted star Matt Willis, Tamsin Carroll and Felix Scott.

When announcing her reasons for stepping down from Love Island, Whitmore said, in particular, 'flying back and forth to South Africa' during the winter series of the show was a lot to handle.

Maya Jama has since hosted the dating show and is a huge hit with fans. 

Laura and Iain wed in 2020 and the bride looked typically chic in a wide legged white suit for the occasion.
