Seann Walsh has announced that he is preparing to welcome his first child with girlfriend Grace Adderley.

The comedian broke the joyful news to fans on Saturday night during an Instagram live with a friend while in Stamford, Lincolnshire where he was performing a stand-up show.

‘I’m having a child,’ Seann stated, to which his friend asked for confirmation: ‘So you’re gonna be a dad?’

The former I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here star replied ‘yeah’, prompting the friend to joke: ‘That’s worrying.’

Seann then said: ‘Unbelievable. Everyone else has been really nice, that’s the worst response yet.’

Warning the comedian about the tough life of fatherhood that awaits him, his pal added: ‘You’re going to have a lot more worries.’

‘That’s the one thing I need in life actually, I don’t think I’ve had enough worries,’ Seann joked according to The Sun.

Seann, 36, and Grace, 30, have been in a relationship since 2019.

Their baby news comes three years after Seann was caught up in scandal when pictures emerged of him kissing his Strictly Come Dancing partner Katya Jones, who was married to fellow professional dancer Neil Jones and he was in a longtime relationship with Rebecca Humphries.

In 2018, Seann and Katya shocked fans after they were pictured in an embrace during a night out together.

He admitted last year that he had been seeing a therapist after the backlash following the pictures being revealed, and still regrets his actions. 

Speaking on Richard Herring’s Leicester Square Theatre podcast in 2019, he explained: ‘Of course I’m in therapy! You can’t go through [a scandal like that] and not be. 

‘But people seemed to enjoy Strictly. I was very sorry and still am.’ 

Rebecca famously dumped Seann in a brutal letter which she shared publicly, ending their five-year relationship.

Katya initially released a statement insisting her marriage to Neil was ‘absolutely fine’, but they later announced they were ending their six-year relationship.

Seann may be returning to screens soon as he has reportedly signed up for the next series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.
