Ant McPartlin has broken his silence on his wife Anne-Marie Corbett’s pregnancy.
The couple’s pregnancy was revealed when Anne-Marie was spotted sporting a baby bump in snaps from December last year.
The 48-year-old married his former personal assistant to him and his ex-wife Lisa Armstrong, in 2021.

In an interview with Fault Magazine, Ant revealed that he and his famous sidekick Declan Donnelly would be taking a break from their late-night show.
Ant opened up on a personal level during the interview and addressed his wife’s pregnancy for the first time publicly.
The father-to-be said: “On a more personal level, part of the reason we’re pausing Takeaway is we need a break ourselves, and we need to spend some time with our family.”

When the couple were first spotted together with Anne-Marie’s bump, onlookers told the Daily Mail: “He couldn’t stop smiling, he looked like the happiest man in the world.”
Ant has previously been open about his desire to become a father.
In 2013 he revealed his struggles with his ex-wife, saying: “There’s a rumour that I’m holding off having kids till Dec finds himself Mrs Right.”

“I love that idea, but I’m afraid it’s not true. Lisa and I would love to have kids. We’re trying. It’s tougher than you think when you get a bit older.”
The pair split in 2018 after Ant checked into rehab for addiction issues.
They were married for 12 years and it is believed that the couple spent years trying for a baby.

The Newcastle native met his current wife, Anne-Marie, when she began working for the couple.
A friend told the outlet: “Anne-Marie was Lisa’s friend, and she was heavily involved in getting her the job working for the McPartlins.”
“Lisa would send Anne-Marie’s children birthday and Christmas presents, she even went on holiday with them, and then bang, it all changed.”
Ant previously described his wife as “his rock”, stating: “She’s a beautiful soul. We’re very happy. I’m in the best place I’ve been in my life. It’s great.”
