Noel Fielding and his girlfriend Lliana Bird are expecting their second child together!
Lliana announced on her Instagram that she is pregnant on her Instagram, as she told that she’d be starting her maternity leave from her RadioX presenting gig this week.
The pair already share daughter Dali, who they welcomed back in 2018.
The radio DJ wrote: “I’ve actually been baking a little something of myself this lockdown so I’m starting so I’m starting my maternity leave from @radiox this week, and delighted that the bada** lady @pollyjames will be keeping my show seat warm in the coming months.”
Noel and Lliana are thought to have first started dating back in 2010.
Noel has recently been filming in the Bake Off tent alongside judges Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood.
The upcoming series will also mark the debut of Matt Lucas as Noel’s co-host, following Sandi Toksvig’s departure earlier this year.
While a huge number shows across showbiz were hit hard by coronavirus, Bake Off has managed to get back on its feet- albeit with a whole host of new rules and regulations.
Social distancing measures are in place, though it’s reported bodily contact will be allowed – which means Paul’s much sought-after handshake of approval will be back.
Noel’s been testing out his baking skills at home, as well as getting in some quality father-daughter time during lockdown with Dali.
He told Lorraine Kelly: “She paints and she’s very good as well, and so we have tea parties, with banana bread and lemon drizzle cake.
“I normally dress up as Macca Pacca.”
He’s even managed to get a few tips from maestro Paul himself.
“I made one loaf with Paul Hollywood,” Noel laughed, “It was very much Paul’s loaf, even when I was kneading, his big mahogany hands over my ET-like hands, it was quite sensual!”
Noel took over as Bake Off host in 2017, alongside Sandi.
That was the same year that it moved to Channel 4 from the BBC, with Paul the only original cast member remaining.
