Operation Transformation host Kathryn Thomas has revealed that she and her husband Pádraig McLoughlin are expecting their second child.
The broadcaster took to Instagram to announce the news with a sweet picture of her daughter, Ellie, smiling up at her baby bump. She captioned the post, saying:
"So literally….I cannot keep our news in any longer.... Pádraig, Ellie, Conor and myself are over the moon and feel incredibly grateful to be be able to share our news. Our little family is about to grow. All's well…. I feel great and we cannot wait."
Kathryn and Pádraig met in 2013 while queuing for a drink in O'Donoghue's bar on Baggot Street. Three years later, the restaurateur popped the question while the two enjoyed a romantic getaway in Ballyfin House, Co Laois.
In 2017, Kathryn announced that she was expecting their first baby by posting a photo of her two pups and a pair of baby booties to Instagram with the caption:
"A little announcement. Excited to let you know myself & Padraig are adding to our little family. We're over the moon and I feel extremely blessed that I'm pregnant. Our next baby might not be as hairy or have a tail like these two but will be equally as cute. Roll on Spring time 2018."
The couple finally wed in a fairytale ceremony at Kilkea Castle in Co. Kildare in August, 2019 following the arrival of their daughter, Ellie.
During the ceremony, one-year-old Ellie played the role of flower girl, while Conor - Pádraig's son from a previous relationship - acted as best man.
