Paloma Faith has revealed she is expecting her third baby. The 44-year-old Traitors star unveiled her unexpected baby bump on Instagram on Friday. She struck a pose next to her beloved dog whilst proudly displaying her growing bump. She wore a sports jersey rolled up to reveal her stomach and a polka dot skirt by Taylor Dorry, complete with a matching sports cap, as she held onto her dog. In another photograph, she was pictured reclining on her bed in the same outfit, reports the Mirror . She wrote alongside the post: "Plot twist , mother is mothering (again)," before adding hashtags #morethangeriatricpregnancy #oappregnancy #oapmilf #18weekspregnant.

Singer Lapsley was amongst those who responded, writing: "The best news. Congrats you two." She included several emojis, including a love heart and raised hands. Another follower commented: "SHUT UP MAMA! ! ! ! ! I am so SO thrilled for you, gorgeous Mamacita." Paloma Faith made her relationship with her new partner, Stevie Thomas, public earlier this year. The couple were spotted together in March when the director of a Birmingham music venue accompanied her to Sony's Brit Awards afterparty at Nobu Portman Square. Paloma was previously married to Leyman Lahcine, with whom she shared a decade-long relationship before they parted ways in 2022. Discussing the breakdown of her marriage at the time, the Picking Up The Pieces singer explained: "You either grow together, adapting to one another like expandable foam and filling the gaps where it's empty - or one person grows and the other stays the same. "And I think for me, becoming a mother was such a massively life-changing experience that for the first time in my life, I needed more than nothing - and the expandable foam just wasn't there." She continued: "Our relationship ended because we have those children. And I think that was worth it." The expectant mum-of-three subsequently confessed that single parenthood had proved challenging after their separation. Alongside her forthcoming arrival, Paloma gave birth to her other two children in 2016 and 2021. Paloma's baby news arrives as viewers of The Celebrity Traitors witnessed her becoming the first contestant "murdered" in the current series, which seems to have been recorded prior to her pregnancy. Earlier this month, her good friend Alan Carr orchestrated her swift departure from the programme. Alan, together with Jonathan Ross and Cat Burns, had been selected as this season's Traitors by presenter Claudia Winkleman. The threesome wasted little time in setting their sights on Paloma. Following her elimination, she remarked: "These are like three of my favourite people that I was sure...I hope they never call me again. Bang out of order. Bang out of order. I feel really even more betrayed now. I feel betrayed by Jonathan and Alan." Get daily breaking news updates on your phone by joining our WhatsApp community here .
