Vick Hope confirms she is pregnant with first child with Calvin Harris

Vick Hope has confirmed she is pregnant with her first child with Calvin Harris.

The radio presenter, 35, revealed the news on her Radio 1 show, telling listeners she was about to go on maternity leave next week.

During a conversation with her co-host Jamie Laing on Monday, she told listeners: “I should probably also say this is my final week before I go on maternity leave.”

The former Made in Chelsea star sweetly told Vick she’d be an “amazing mum”.

“You're an amazing friend, an amazing person, and you're just going to be an amazing mum,” he said.

Vick had been previously photographed with a baby bump, but hadn’t yet confirmed the news.

Vick and the DJ, 41, married in September 2023.

Earlier that year, Vick spoke of Calvin’s “perfect" proposal.

It was said that the chart-topping DJ got down on one knee on his farm in Ibiza last summer and presented the 33-year-old with a diamond ring worth £1 million.

Addressing the rumours, Hope told You magazine: “[A] very precious thing has happened," before revealing: “It was… perfect."

The former Strictly contestant added that her then Radio 1 co-host, Jordan North, hasn’t stopped teasing her about the engagement, especially after she and Harris spent Christmas whizzing around the Caribbean on his private jet.

She also revealed why she doesn’t share details of her romance publicly.

“We don’t really put anything on social media because the time we have together is ‘real life’ and it’s our own," she explained.

“For the first time in a long time, I’m finishing work and going home to a life that is just mine. I’m learning to find balance and peace."

When asked about how they balance their relationship with their careers, she said: “We both have very busy work schedules.

“I’ll join him when I can and then I come back for my work."

Harris, who has previously dated Taylor Swift and Rita Ora, had tried his chances with Hope before he hit the big time several years ago, but she had rejected him.

“It’s something that we laughed about on our first proper date," she revealed. “We still laugh about it now."
