Dr Renee Hoenderkamp stunned this afternoon’s GB News panel as she announced her “miracle” pregnancy live on air.
Sharing the wonderful news on the People’s Channel, the 59-year-old presenter revealed she was pregnant with her third child.
But she broke the news in an unconventional way, discussing the fears of women and girls in Piddington.
She said: “I’m going to talk tonight about Piddington, but before I talk about Piddington, I’m going to tell you why.
“When I heard Angela Rayner’s announcement in the week, I was viscerally angry with it. I couldn’t believe it.
“The reason for that is because obviously I am a woman, but I am also a mother, and I’m a mother of a grown up boy and a very young girl.
“And I have some news to break to the panel today that they’re not aware of, or anybody else of that matter, is that I’m actually going to be a mother of three shortly, and I am currently 12 weeks pregnant with my next child.”
Her fellow GB News presenters were left stunned at the wonderful news, with Will Kingston standing up to run over to giver Dr Renee a hug.
Grinning ear-to-ear, Cai Wilshaw said: “Congratulations. Oh my God, this is amazing. Is that true?”
“We’re not going to talk about Headington. We’re talking about a miracle,” Tre Lowe exclaimed.
The presenters were unable to focus on the show as they bombarded the star with excited questions.
Will quipped: “This is the most shocked I’ve been on air since Khamenei was assassinated. And this is even better news than that!”
In another segment, the panel brought out a gender reveal cake, decorated in baby pink and baby blue icing for Dr Renee.
The doctor previously spoke out about her previous pregnancy with Alice, who is now seven years’ old, when she was 50.
Opening up on the age gap between her children, she said: “He was born when I was 21.
“I was planning to deliver his brother or sister at the age of 51, when most people are thinking about grandchildren, rather than launching into another round of endless nappy changes and sleepless nights.”
She explained having two children with a 30-year age gap allowed her to experience pregnancy and motherhood from different perspectives.
“Despite all the tut-tutting levelled at older mothers such as me, I can hand-on-heart say having a baby in my 50s is the best thing I have ever done — yes, including having one in my 20s,” the doctor said.
