Angellica Bell is planning an extra special present for her husband Michael Underwood for their first wedding anniversary - a baby.

The TV presenter couple, who wed last Christmas in New York City, have announced they are expecting their first child.

Bell, 35, revealed the news on her Twitter page after undergoing her 12 week scan earlier today.

She gushed: 'Just to let you know @MikeyUnderwood and I are having a baby! Had the scan this morning and all is well. All very exciting!

'Now you know why I've been talking about food non-stop for the past " months! Ha!


'Oh and you guys can stop asking us when we going to start trying for a baby! LMAO!'

The excited mum-to-be also admitted she had started buying new bras for her changing curves from her local lingerie store Leia in Richmond, South West London.

She explained: 'Bought loads of bras for my ample breasts! Also got a maternity cream top! Lush.'

The new arrival is expected in December - just in time for their first wedding anniversary.

The couple tied the knot in a surprise ceremony in between Christmas and New Year in a snowy Manhattan with none of their friends of family present.

Underwood, 35, and Bell first met in 2000 when she joined Children's BBC as a presenter.

They remained good friends, but Bell went on to fall in love and marry personal trainer Stuart Amory in January 2007.

However, Bell later claimed she was having problems with Stuart after a few months of marriage before leaving him in July 2008.

Weeks after their split, Bell admitted she was in a relationship with Underwood after they were photographed kissing in a London park.

She said at the time: 'It's very sad that Stuart and I are over.

'It's early days, but Michael and I are together. Obviously, Stuart is very hurt, but he's such a great guy, I hope we can both move on.

'Stuart is not happy about Michael and this situation - but it just didn't work.'

Bell admitted Underwood had actually told her about his feelings for her a few months before her lavish wedding in a Scottish castle.

She recalled: 'A couple of months before I got married, he expressed how he felt.

'It was really hard but we decided it would be best if he stayed out of the picture, I wanted to give my marriage a real go, I was in love.'
