The One Show host Angela Scanlon is pregnant with her second baby and says she's feeling 'very lucky and excited'

THE One Show's Angela Scanlon has revealed she is pregnant with her second child.

The 37-year-old shared the news with fans today as she showed off her growing baby bump.


She captioned the snap: “SO, this is happening!! I’m pregnant & apparently already prepping for actual labour. Baby Horgan The Second (official title) arrives next spring ❣️ 

“Feeling very lucky & excited & also nervous about jumping on a trampoline (forever).”

The Irish star, who married Roy Horgan in 2014, is already mum to Ruby Ellen, three.

Angela returned to work when Ruby was just 12 weeks old, and recently admitted she saw lockdown as her maternity leave. 

In an interview with The Sun's Fabulous magazine, she revealed: “I went back to work very quickly and one of the ways I got over the lack of control of lockdown was to look at it as the maternity leave I never gave myself.”

The star said the experience was tough and made her realise she wasn’t invincible.

“I’d thought of myself as this machine, but giving birth made me realise I wasn’t, after all. All the ideas I had of myself were shattered. I needed help. I needed my husband’s help, I needed a midwife’s help, I needed a lactation consultant’s help,” she said.

"She was born during the Beast from the East storm [in February 2018] and so none of my family could come over to support and hold me, and I felt a massive sense of isolation.

“Going back to work that early, although I sometimes think it was the wrong thing to do, was also the thing that allowed me to hold on to myself a bit at a time when everything felt very frightening for me.”
