TV Gregg, 54 and wife, 32 having a baby
MasterChef Gregg’s wife pregnant after two years of trying
GREGG Wallace and his wife are expecting a “miracle” baby boy together, after struggling to conceive for two years.
The MasterChef star, 54, and Anna, 32, had been preparing for fertility treatment, but were delighted when it happened naturally.
“The doctor told us it was a miracle Anna was pregnant,” said Gregg, who wept at the scan. “We were due to start IVF but it happened naturally after two years of trying.” Gregg has vowed this baby – his third and Anna’s first – will be his last. “We’ve agreed to only have one child together – I’m too old,” he said. The couple will have some help from Anna’s parents, who now live with the couple at their £1million fivebedroom home in Whitstable, Kent.

Speaking to OK! Magazine, Gregg added: “I’ve been scared and stressed since she fell pregnant but since we had the 12-week scan recently it feels joyous. “Seeing our baby son and the strength of his heartbeat made me cry. We’re going to call him Sid Massimo Wallace.” Anna said: “I’ve been happy with the idea of just having one child right from the start. The fact we’re having one baby is a miracle – we’re blessed enough. I’m due on May 9 and hopefully I’ll have a natural birth.” Gregg has been married four times. He split from his first wife Christine in 1991 just six weeks after the ceremony. He tied the knot with chef Denise in 1999, but they broke up in 2004 after Gregg had an affair. Denise is mother to his children Tom, 24, and Libby, 20. Gregg wed teacher Heidi Brown – 17 years his junior – in 2010, but it lasted only 18 months. He met Anna on Twitter in 2013.
