Declan Donnelly expecting first child

Declan Donnelly and wife Ali are expecting their first child – as best friend Ant McPartlin struggles to get back on the mend.

Dec, 42 and Ali, 40, are said to be “absolutely delighted to be expecting”, with a source telling the UK Sun that they have “been trying for some time”.

The pair, who have been married since 2015, have already shared their happy news with Dec’s best friend and TV partner Ant McPartlin.

According to reports Ali got pregnant shortly after Ant and Dec returned from Australia for the most recent series of I’m A Celebrity.

He confirmed the news on Twitter.

“Just wanted to say thank you for all the lovely messages. The news has sneaked out a little earlier than we had hoped but Ali and I are delighted to be expecting our first child. Thanks for all the love, we really appreciate it ❤ D x”

“This has come at a difficult time for them both, given everything that Ant is now going through and the pressure that has put on Dec in the past week,” a source told the publication.

“But their priority now is their baby and an experience that they see as the best of their lives.

“They have both always wanted a family but worried that it might not happen for them.”

Dec’s best pal Ant just checked back into rehab this week following his arrest on for drink-driving.

Ant had spoken about he and estranged wife Lisa Armstrong’s desire to have children, and admitted they were “trying” back in 2013.
