Capital Breakfast host Sian Welby announced live on-air during Wednesday’s show that she is expecting her first child with fiancé Jake Beckett.

The Exciting News
The 37-year-old presenter said: ‘I’ve got a bit of an announcement for you… I’m pregnant! I don’t know how I’ve managed to keep it from you for so long.
‘The lies, the deceit, the mocktails! I couldn’t wait to tell you. This is a whole new journey for me and I want to take you all on it with me, and don’t worry I’m not going anywhere!
‘This is going to be a lot of fun and I can’t wait to share it with you all.’

Sian is in For a Break
Capital revealed that Sian will take a break from the station during the summer but will return to Capital Breakfast with Jordan North, Chris and Sian later in the year.
Sian later shared the news on Instagram, posting a collage of sweet snaps with Jake showing them prepare for life as new parents.
Sian’s fiancé Jake – who popped the question in August last year – works for Heart Breakfast as a creative producer alongside hosts including Kelly Brook, Rochelle Humes, Vogue Williams and Emma Bunton.
The happy announcement comes after Sian missed out on the coveted This Morning hosting gig, which has been awarded to Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard.
