Thomas Skinner, the TV personality and businessman known for his appearances on 'The Apprentice' and 'Strictly Come Dancing', has announced that he and his wife Sinéad are expecting their fourth child. The news was shared on his birthday, with Skinner describing the pregnancy as 'the greatest present in the world'.
In a social media post, Skinner wrote: 'I honestly couldn’t ask for anything more. Our little family of five is about to become six!! I am so blessed and grateful! Better start looking for a bigger car.' He added: 'Can’t wait to meet you, Baby Skinner. Best birthday ever. Mummy, Daddy and your big brother and sisters are going to love you so so much.' The couple already have three children: Henry, Darla and Roma.
The announcement comes months after Skinner was the first contestant eliminated from 'Strictly Come Dancing'. He later claimed he had received an anonymous email suggesting the public vote had been manipulated, but the BBC denied any irregularities, stating the vote was independently verified. Skinner did not attend the final, but said he had spoken with his dance partner Amy Dowden to ensure she was comfortable with his absence.
Skinner recently appeared on 'Celebrity Apprentice', where he was tasked with creating a Christmas biscuit for Children in Need. Lord Alan Sugar teased him about his celebrity status, and Skinner became emotional in the boardroom, reflecting on his journey. Co-star Angela Scanlon described him as the 'golden goose' of their group, though she noted his biscuit product was 'sub-standard'.
