BBC Breakfast presenter Nina Warhurst 'reveals the gender of her third child' during an evening out - a day after announcing her pregnancy

BBC Breakfast presenter Nina Warhurst ‘revealed the gender of her third child’ on Wednesday.

The presenter, 42, was enjoying an evening out when she appeared to confirm she was having a baby girl.

On Wednesday Nina revealed that after months of ‘vomiting and migraines’ she discovered she was expecting with her husband Ted.

And that evening Nina attended a Self Esteem gig with pals and was filmed dancing along to her track I Do This All The Time.

As she raised her arms in the air and swayed, her friend wrote across her video, which Nina then re-shared: ‘One for the baby girl’.

She added: ‘First gig’ alongside a love heart emoji, with the video then panning to Nina’s baby bump concealed under a polka dot dress.

In her pregnancy announcement she shared a beaming snap of herself posing in a skin-tight black dress, while cradling her growing baby bump in the BBC studio.

Nina penned on Instagram: ‘Happy Mother’s Day to all of those who are any part of this endless handover of love, values, genes, chaos and perpetually crumb-infested kitchens.

‘I’d like to say “you got this Mama!” But maybe you haven’t. I dunno. It’s hard isn’t it?’

‘That said we are doing it again. It’s been a funky few months… involving intense migraines, vomiting, morning kebabs, first time acne, small acts of violence against fruit, afternoon kebabs, tears, spontaneous snoozes, anxiety and more kebabs.

‘I am settling in to the middle chunk (emphasis on chunk) and enjoying the wonders of Mother Nature and her tiny kicks and flutters. The boys and the cat have been enjoying their new chair God willing, Baby Doner-Shish joins the outside world in the summer.

‘I am blown away that we do this. And acutely aware of the privilege, born of nothing but fortune.’

She signed off by adding: ‘Sending love to those who’ve had to say goodbye to the babies they lost and the ones they dreamed of.’

It comes after Nina said she feels guilty for losing patience with her father’s forgetfulness as he struggles with the degenerative symptoms of dementia.

The presenter has filmed a short feature for the BBC in which she shines a light on the plight of dementia sufferers and the wider impact it has on family members left to care for their loved ones.

Warhurst and her sisters Amy and Mel are currently co-caring for elderly father Chris, who was diagnosed with the condition in 2022 – but the presenter admitted she’s still coming to terms with the toll it has already taken on his cognitive ability.

‘We have been fortunate that my dad has never gotten angry,’ she told Monday’s BBC Breakfast . ‘I know that can happen with different forms of dementia, but he didn’t understand it was happening.

‘When we had conversations about changing the set-up, maybe giving some respite care he thought nothing was wrong.

‘Having to tell little fibs all the time just broke your heart but it was in his best interest. There were times when “if I don’t fib to him to get us over this hump, we are not going to get there”.

‘And he would phone me 10 times a day, saying “I need you to come round” and then I’d get there and he would say “What are you doing here?”‘

She added: ‘At that point, it is hard not to be cross and that was the surprising thing, I felt really guilty because I was getting angry with him.

‘I was taking it out on him and I had two tiny kids at home that I wasn’t seeing as much and I wasn’t focused at work. There are these ripples that then go through your family as well.’

Dementia, a degenerative condition with no known cure, commonly affects the brain’s ability to think, remember, and function normally, with suffers typically losing their memories over time.

Taking to Instagram last year, Warhurst admitted she was devastated after her father failed to recognise her.

Sharing a photo of herself and Chris, she wrote: ‘My Dad. I missed him so much this week. Dementia means he’s here, but not here. Today was the first time he couldn’t quite place me.

‘Then he got out a new glasses case. He was clearly chuffed with it but knew it was funny to be chuffed with a new glasses case.

‘In some ways, he taught me to laugh. Properly from the tummy. And to laugh at myself.’

She added: ‘We’re all holding on to those deep-rooted connections for as long as we can. Dementia isn’t the end. It’s the start of a new chapter.

‘So much respect for his key worker today who told me that it’s all about cherishing those connections, instead of missing the ones we’ve lost. The staff are superstars and it means the world.’
