Sunrise newsreader Edwina Bartholomew is expecting her first child with husband Neil Varcoe.

The 35-year-old journalist shared the happy news live on Channel Seven’s breakfast show on Wednesday morning.

‘We’re having a baby, due in December,’ she told her colleagues.

Edwina added: ‘We’re super stoked and our family is really excited. Mum has been bursting at the seams to tell everyone – so mum, you can tell everyone!’ 

She explained that Sunrise co-host Samantha Armytage already knew about the pregnancy, and fellow reporter Natalie Barr had guessed due to her odd cravings.

‘Sam knew early on and Nat guessed because I kept eating a lot of dried toast at three in the morning!’ she joked.

David Koch was visibly delighted by Edwina’s announcement, giving her a big hug and saying: ‘How exciting! I love a baby!’

The mum-to-be also shared a sonogram photo with Sunrise viewers, adding that she is yet to find out if she’s having a boy or a girl. 

Edwina married Neil, a digital media executive, on Saturday April 21 at their restored farmhouse in Lithgow, New South Wales.

She wore a vintage wedding dress that had been worn by three generations of her family, including her grandmother in 1944.

The gown had been specially altered for her nuptials by Cappellazzo Couture.

The couple first met as colleagues at radio station 2GB and were together for six years when Neil proposed in April 2017.
