Scarlett Moffatt has thrilled fans by announcing she is expecting a baby boy, admitting that she had hoped for another son. The 35-year-old TV star and fiancé Scott Dobinson are preparing to welcome their second child, following the arrival of son Jude in 2023.
Speaking to the Mirror, Scarlett shared: “All my family and friends knew I wanted another boy. Of course it would have been wonderful to have a girl – a healthy baby is all that matters – but my preference was a boy, to give Jude a brother. I’m just so happy for him. He’s got someone to share his life with now.”
Back in April, Scarlett had revealed the happy news on Instagram Stories, posting a heartwarming photo of herself, Scott, and Jude, cradling her growing bump. She also ran a playful poll asking fans to guess the baby’s gender, noting her high bump and cravings for cheese.
Despite the excitement, Scarlett candidly reflected on a challenging first trimester, sharing a selfie in bed with the caption: “Also for those lovely ones saying I’m glowing, let me tell you the first trimester was HELL lol. I was driving to jobs and having mini sicks then filming, getting hot and cold flushes and migraines. So I’m now accepting compliments lol thank you.”
Scarlett told the Mirror she feels she was “born to be a boy mum.” She posted a touching video on Instagram holding the ultrasound alongside Scott and Jude, captioning: “We honestly can’t believe we’re writing this… After everything, we feel unbelievably lucky to be able to say… our family is growing. One little miracle gave us Jude, and now he’s going to be a big brother. And if there’s one thing we know for certain, it’s that he is going to be the most amazing big brother. We are so grateful, so excited, and still a little bit in shock… Our hearts are fuller than we ever thought possible.”
The former Gogglebox star has previously shared the challenges of her four-year fertility journey before welcoming Jude, making this announcement all the more joyous for the couple.
