Pregnant Emily Atack reveals her baby’s gender and reveals she hopes her campaign to change sexual consent laws will improve her child’s life

Emily Atack has revealed she is welcoming a baby boy next month.

The TV personality, 34, is expecting her first child with Alistair, who is also a step-cousin she grew up with.

She proudly announced the news on Instagram in early January, with a photo of her blossoming baby bump, saying she was “over the moon.”

On Tuesday, Emily appeared on BBC Breakfast to discuss the campaign to introduce Affirmative Consent into relationships.

The actress explained how she wanted to bring about a change in sexual consent laws for both men and women.

She then admitted that while she had no intention of revealing anything, she confirmed that she was expecting a boy, while hoping that his future would be improved by the campaign.

Emily said, “I wasn’t going to say this, but I’m going to say this. I’m having a boy.’

She added: ‘So I want him to be part of a really positive change and I want him to grow up knowing that he can talk about these things openly and enjoy his life. I want him to be on the right side of history.”
