Big Brother star and Emily Atack’s ex announces he’s going to be a dad as wife is pregnant just months after US wedding
BIG Brother star Liam McGough has revealed he’s set to become a dad for the first time just months after tying the knot in New Orleans.
Tree surgeon Liam, 42, shot to fame on the eighth series of the reality show in 2007 and had a seven-month romance with actress Emily Atack in 2022.
Now he and wife Sloane Coe have shared the exciting news they’re expecting their first child together – telling fans they’re having a baby girl.
Liam took to social media to share a sweet snap of him cradling Sloane’s bump as he embraced her from behind.
He wrote: “Huge news!! Biggest ever tbh. Me and Sloane are going to have a baby girl.
“It’s been so hard to keep it quiet. Even harder for my dad who hasn’t managed haha. I found out on day 3 of the fringe. Never felt prouder in my life.”
In August Liam opened up to The Sun about their incredible wedding in the Deep South, confessing he’d “never experienced anything like it”.
He said: “The wedding was amazing — small and intimate, with only close friends and family. We got married right in the heart of New Orleans, Louisiana, and it was incredible. I’ve never experienced anything like it.
The celebration was so romantic and personal, and then, for the party afterwards, we were marched around the area by a full brass band in what’s called a Second Line.
“We had a police escort blocking the roads as we danced through the streets, with four huge motorbikes and two massive police trucks accompanying us.
“The contrast between the intimate ceremony and this unique, extravagant spectacle left all of our heads spinning in the most amazing way.”
Liam previously dated Inbetweeners star Emily for seven months, with The Sun revealing their split in October 2022.
