Paloma Faith has stunned fans by revealing she is expecting her third child at 44. The singer and Celebrity Traitors star shared the unexpected news on Instagram, proudly showing off her baby bump while playfully captioning the post: “Plot twist, mother is mothering (again),” before adding cheeky hashtags like #oappregnancy and #oapmilf.
Wearing a cropped sports jersey and a polka-dot skirt, Paloma posed alongside her dog, radiating confidence and joy as she revealed she was already 18 weeks pregnant.
The announcement comes just months after Paloma made headlines for her appearance on The Celebrity Traitors, where she was the first contestant “murdered” on the show by her close friends Alan Carr, Jonathan Ross and Cat Burns. Reflecting on her early exit, she said: “These are like three of my favourite people… I hope they never call me again. Bang out of order. I feel betrayed!”
Fans flooded her Instagram with congratulatory messages. Singer Låpsley wrote: “The best news. Congrats you two,” while another follower gushed, “SHUT UP MAMA! I’m so thrilled for you!”
Paloma went public with her new partner, music venue director Stevie Thomas, earlier this year. The couple were first spotted together in March at the BRIT Awards afterparty at Nobu Portman Square.
Her journey to motherhood has not been without heartbreak. The “Picking Up the Pieces” hitmaker split from her husband of ten years, Leyman Lahcine, in 2022. Reflecting on their breakup, she once shared: “You either grow together, adapting to one another like expandable foam — or one person grows and the other stays the same. Becoming a mother changed me completely. Our relationship ended because we had those children — and I think that was worth it.”
Paloma already shares two daughters with Leyman, born in 2016 and 2021, and has spoken openly about the challenges of being a single mum. This latest pregnancy marks a new chapter for her — one she’s embracing with her trademark humour and strength.
