Jack Whitehall has announced he and his girlfriend, Roxy Horner, are expecting their first child together.

The comedian and Bad Education star posted on Twitter a photo of him and Horner, 31, with them both announcing the news on their social media on Sunday.

Whitehall, 34, jokingly captioned the post: “Should probably finally learn to drive now. #Adulting #DadLevel.”

Model Horner wrote on her Instagram: “The best news to share…”

The couple have been together for more than two years, with Whitehall commenting on their relationship in 2021 when Horner found out she had type 1 diabetes after collapsing at the Brit Awards.

Messages of congratulations flooded in to the couple. Friends including Helen Flanagan, Frida Redknapp and Charli Howard sending their best wishes.

It comes soon after Whitehall admitted he was unsure about his path in life after losing some friends to “rehab” while his others had children.

He spoke about his relationship with his girlfriend Roxy and shared they have bought a house together.

He explained that although he has now “settled down” with Roxy, he is still unsure about his future plans as he hinted he has not yet decided if he wanted children.
