Nicola Roberts, a member of the popular girl group Girls Aloud, has recently shared the joyous news of her pregnancy. The 40-year-old singer, known for keeping her personal life private, confirmed her engagement to footballer Mitch Hahn last year. Roberts, originally from Runcorn, and the 36-year-old Team GB star are expecting their first child together. The announcement was made on social media, with Roberts expressing excitement about meeting their baby in the spring after keeping the news a secret for five months.
Various celebrities, including Laura Whitmore and Jessie Ware, congratulated Roberts on her pregnancy news. The singer’s former bandmates, Cheryl, Nadine Coyle, and Kimberley Walsh, who are all mothers themselves, also shared their excitement for Roberts’ expanding family.
Roberts and Mitch went public with their relationship in June 2022, making their first appearance together at an Elton John concert. The couple’s engagement was hinted at during a performance at Brighton Pride, with Roberts wearing an engagement ring believed to have been given to her by Mitch during a holiday in France.
Mitch, a successful CEO and former professional footballer, has been supportive of Roberts, who is known for her music career and songwriting. Roberts has expressed her desire for her Girls Aloud bandmates to be involved in her wedding, including a special tribute to the late Sarah Harding, who passed away in 2021 after battling breast cancer.
Despite past tensions within the group, Girls Aloud reunited to commemorate their 20th anniversary and raise funds for The Sarah Harding Breast Cancer Appeal. The band members continue to honor Harding’s memory and support each other through life’s milestones.
