Pregnant Laura Whitmore celebrated both her birthday and baby shower on Tuesday ahead of the imminent arrival of her second child. The TV presenter, 41, who is married to Love Island narrator Iain Stirling, enjoyed karaoke, rude games, and a drag artist performance, sharing a glimpse of the 'insane' night on her Instagram.
Venue and Festivities
The gathering took place at BAM Karaoke Box UK in London. Laura showed off her baby bump in a tight white top and lace trousers. Guests enjoyed sparkling drinks and nibbles before playing raunchy games such as 'labour or porn' and belting out karaoke hits.
She wrote in her caption: 'BIRTH day with gladly no other surprise births! So grateful to my gorgeous friends for the most fun, insane birthday baby shower absolute shenanigans! @bamkaraokebox.uk.'
Drag Artists and Friends
Laura also posed with a series of drag artists at the bash as well as with her closest friends. The celebration included performances and lively entertainment.
Pregnancy Announcement
Laura revealed her pregnancy with her second child back in February via an Instagram post. She shared several snaps of her bump and wrote: 'Instagram V Reality - Spoiler: It wasn't just a big meal mama ate. She's been cooking away! I'd like to thank stretchy pants and travel sick bags.'
The couple already share a daughter named Stevie Ré, born in March 2021. They are fiercely private about their family life and rarely share images of their little one.
Congratulatory Messages
Friends and family quickly congratulated her on the happy news. Vick Hope commented: 'Huge congrats lovely Laura!!' Gaby Roslin added: 'Huge congratulations to you both my gorgeous.'
Family Life and Concerns
Irish host Laura welcomed her first child in 2021 with her husband Iain. Speaking to The Standard soon after, she expressed worries about the dangers of the internet for children. She said: 'Having a child definitely changes your priorities and makes you more sensitive to certain subjects. Also, when it comes to the online world and it's changing so dramatically it does make me conscious that in a few years to come I'm going to have to deal with that and it's something I can't control. So it does make me hyper-sensitive.'
