Taylor Ward Expecting First Child with Riyad Mahrez After Secret Wedding

Taylor Ward, daughter of Real Housewives of Cheshire star Dawn Ward, has announced she is pregnant with her first child. The 23-year-old and her husband, Manchester City footballer Riyad Mahrez, shared the news on Instagram while holidaying in the Maldives.

The couple posted a beachside photo showing Taylor in a white swimsuit with a visible baby bump, as Mahrez cradled her stomach. The caption read: 'Where life begins and love never ends..' The post included ultrasound images and received congratulations from celebrities including Molly-Mae Hague and Olivia Bowden.

The pregnancy announcement comes weeks after reports that the pair secretly married in a Muslim Nikah ceremony late last year. They are reportedly planning a second legal ceremony in the UK. Mahrez proposed in July 2023 during a holiday in Mykonos with a £400,000 ring.
