BBC Breakfast presenter Steph McGovern welcomes first child with girlfriend

Congratulations are in order for the BBC Breakfast reporter! November 08, 2019 - 14:37 GMT Sharnaz Shahid Steph McGovern has welcomed her first baby into the world. The BBC Breakfast presenter announced the happy news on her Twitter page on Friday, revealing that the baby girl arrived on Monday morning. Sharing the announcement, she wrote: "Well hello world, just surfaced to let you know that we now have a daughter! Born on Monday morning just as @BBCBreakfast was wrapping up.

The 37-year-old was quickly inundated with messages of congratulations, with her BBC colleague and Strictly star Mike Bushell writing: "Wow wow. This is the most amazing news. Huge love and congratulations and bet she’s just gorgeous. Hope all going well and you’re getting the odd bit of sleep. Baby joy.

The journalist revealed her pregnancy in a light-hearted Twitter post shared back in July. "I see my news is out! Yep, I am no longer with pot belly...... I am now with child. #babyonboard," she tweeted at the time. In January 2018, Steph was forced to refute pregnancy claims after viewers started congratulating her. With her typical good humour, she told her Twitter followers: "For those who are congratulating me on my 'pregnancy'.

Shortly after Steph's tongue-in-cheek shutdown, the reporter told MailOnline that she didn't take "too much offence" with the remarks. She explained: "I'd definitely be in the wrong job if I got offended by comments like that. Even my own auntie asked me once if I was pregnant after seeing me on the telly - that's just life on camera.
