Mollie took part in Strictly Come Dancing in 2017 where she was partnered with AJ Pritchard. The pair did well on the show and they were voted out of the series in the semi-final.
Mollie and Stuart became engaged on New Year's Day 2021 and in June 2022 Mollie, who was part of the girl band The Saturdays, confirmed they were expecting a baby. She told Grazia: 'It feels weird to be saying this because we've only just told the family, but we're actually having a little girl! Having got five nephews, we were convinced we were going to be having a little boy as well, but we're over the moon to find out it's a little girl."
The Radio 1 presenter recently admitted having a baby was something she had "wanted for a really long time". Mollie and Stuart began dating in March 2018 after first meeting in 2012.
Stuart plays test cricket for the England cricket team and began his cricket career in Leicestershire before moving to Nottinghamshire. Last month, Mollie revealed that she had begun to decorate her daughter's nursery, in a snap posted to her Instagram account.
