EMILY Atack has revealed the first look at her baby bump after announcing she’s pregnant with her first child.
The Sun revealed the exciting news, which the I’m A Celebrity winner, 34, confirmed on Instagram today.
The actress and comedian is five months pregnant and expecting her first child in April.
She told her followers: “Hello Everyone, it’s been a little while but I’m back with some news. I’m delighted to share with you all that we’re having a baby!!
“I’ve never been so happy and utterly terrified at the same time. Please go easy on me ❤️ Every day is mixed with thrill, fear, joy, hysteria, topped off with a lot of vomiting – a bit like when you’ve just stepped off of the Oblivion at Alton Towers on a hangover.
“I’ve got to know my body on such an insane level. It’s made me appreciate the one I’ve been given SO much, I’m doing my absolute best to make it a home for the little squid I’m growing.

“We can already sense the baby is reclined on a mattress of peanut butter and jam sandwiches in there, demanding more chocolate buttons. I’m so happy to be writing all of this to you all. You’ve always stuck by me through the years, do stick around to watch me enter my mum era. Christ. Let’s go”
It comes just three months after Emily was pictured looking loved-up with nuclear scientist Alistair Garner on a sunny pub date.
The pairing, who insisted they were just friends at the time, were seen holding hands as they walked around London.
She and her boyfriend recently set up home together to prepare for their baby’s arrival.

A pal said: “Emily is delighted by the happy news and has been pleased to tell family and close friends about her little one on the way.
“It’s the perfect end to her year and she feels over the moon.
“Emily is more than ready to be a mum and it is something she has dreamed of her whole life.
“Her relationship with Alistair has gone from strength to strength and they’ve moved into together.
“Family is everything to her — she comes from a big one herself and is really close to all her siblings — so she can’t wait to start one of her own.
“They’ve all rallied around her and delighted in the joyous occasion.
Just days ago Emily took a break from social media to focus on “real life” at the end of a “helluva year”.
However, she returned just two days later with a picture of her pet pooch in her bed.
The baby news comes four years after Emily admitted worries she may never have a family of her own.
Before turning 30, she looked for answers to life’s big questions on her show Emily Atack: Adulting.
One of these questions was about her own fertility.
Speaking on the programme, she said: “I have been worrying about my fertility.
“My whole life I have assumed if I met someone I could have babies straight away, but what if I can’t?
“I have got to be honest, if they come back and say something is wrong I will be absolutely devastated.”
Emily, who was in a relationship with ex Rob Jowers at the time, continued: “I’m worrying that I’ll get to 32, still not anywhere close to having kids.
“So is 29 the kind of age you should start thinking about it when I still feel like a baby now?
“I used to look at my Grandma Betty when she was alive and think, God, she’s surrounded with all of us, she’s got so many grandkids, so many kids. That’s what I want.
