Australian radio and TV personality Emma Freedman has announced she’s expecting her first baby.
She shared her pregnancy news on her radio show on Wednesday morning.
Speaking to her Triple M Grill Team co-hosts, Freedman confirmed she and her husband Charlie Rundle can’t wait for their baby to arrive.
The 29-year-old, who is due in May, confessed the pregnancy “hasn’t been easy”.
“There’s been mornings filled with pulling over the side on Oxford Street, opening my door and vomiting on the road,” she told listeners.
Freedman, whose father is Melbourne Cup-winning trainer Lee Freedman, confessed that the racing season was rather difficult.
“Been hard at Spring Carnival,” she joked.
“I was on the sodas just saying I was working. I had a couple of people going, ‘Oh, you wore pants and tops and nothing tight?’ It’s interesting people notice that.”
The personality has a hunch that it will be a girl – in which case she’d love to name her Charlotte – Lotte for short.
But the pregnant radio host won’t know the gender until the birth.
“It’s definitely going to be an emotional rollercoaster. Charlie is over-the-moon, he’s so ready to be a dad… We’re very lucky and very fortunate that it happened so quickly.”
Freedman also shared a touching message on Instagram.
“We are thrilled that we’ll be meeting our own little Rundle Bundle in late May next year,” she wrote alongside two photos – one with her husband and one of her bump with her dog Utah.
“Charlie and I are so excited and can’t wait to experience all the love, joy and challenges of parenthood.”
“This snap was taken on the weekend with the slightest hint of a bump!”
“We’ll also be sharing all of this with Utah, of course! Our fur baby is amazing with children, and I have a feeling he already knows what’s up – my now very regular afternoon naps have been shared with him resting his head on my tummy.”
The couple married earlier this year after they began dating in 2015.
