Congratulations! PJ Harding reveals she is pregnant with baby number two
Congratulations are in order because … PJ Harding is pregnant with her second child!
Announcing her exciting and "sentimental" baby news on The Hits Drive show this afternoon, PJ said:
"On this show, I'm quite transparent and honest and I always talk about what's going on in my life, which is why I need to come clean about something."
"For the last four months, there is something that I have been hiding," she continued. "Some people may have caught onto it, perhaps you've noticed that I have been a little extra forgetful, a little extra ditzy, maybe tired, maybe slurring my words. talking about food more ... fatigued."
"I don't know how to do this in a really professional way, but I have been hiding the fact that ... my husband BJ and I are actually expecting our second child in April!"
PJ went on to explain that her co-host Matty McLean was one of the first people she told and thanked him for keeping her secret close to his chest.
Matty confirmed that he has been the "best secret keeper".
"I'm so thrilled that you're able to share this now," Matty said, congratulating PJ.
PJ also noted that it was a relief to finally have the secret out there.
"It's one of the biggest gripes I have with the whole pregnancy journey, you are supposed to keep this new secret for a period of time while you're actually going through the hardest times and you feel so isolated," she said. "So it's so nice to finally have it out there."
As PJ's second child will arrive in April 2025, she noted that the decision to go for baby number two was a tricky one.
"When it comes to the juggle of career and having babies, it's so hard to nail the perfect time - you never know how it's going to go," PJ said before revealing that she and her husband just decided to throw caution to the wind and go for it.
"And wham-bam thank you ma'am!" Matty joked.

Taking to Instagram, PJ also wrote: "Little announcement from our wild tripod soon to be quirky quartet in April!
"Cannot wait for the adventures, chaos, growth and love ahead. Motherhood is a wild mix of feeling it all and this will be no exception but I feel very grateful that our 3 will soon become 4. It is not lost on me how fortunate we have been and to those in the fertility trenches I see you and send you so, so much love.
"And to anyone who has been suspicious of me over the last 4 months looking tired, always eating, exhausted, ecstatic, erratic/erotic (dreams), wearing weird fitting clothes, abruptly quitting the gym, depleted or extra ditzy well this was why."
This is the second child for PJ and her husband BJ Campbell who have 2-year-old Charlie together.
The couple tied the knot in March this year.
PJ is set to take a bit of time off sometime in 2025 to welcome baby number two.
Congratulations PJ! All of The Hits team is so thrilled for you.
