The 'One Show' host announced the news live on TV by phoning into the BBC studios during Thursday's (26.01.17) show on BBC One to tell presenters Matt Baker and her maternity cover Angela Scanlon that she had delivered a healthy little bundle of joy - her first child with husband Charlie Thomson - weighing 7lb 11, and that they are yet decided on a name
She said: "We're absolutely delighted - we're completely in love with him."
Asked if they'd chosen a suitable moniker yet, she added: "We're a bit behind on the whole names thing!"
The 39-year-old beauty confirmed she was expecting her first child with her spouse - whom she married last year at Cardiff Castle in Wales - at the beginning of September last year and had only been on maternity leave for 20 days before she gave birth.
Announcing their baby joy, Alex said: "Charlie & I are very happy to confirm that we're expecting a baby in the new year. Feel so lucky that we're about to become parents. Xx. (sic)"
Alex uploaded a photograph of a white baby grow with "coming soon" emblazoned across it, and added: "Absolutely delighted and feel very lucky that we're about to become parents. #andbreatheout #newbabyalert (sic)"
Alex's baby news came just a few months after she admitted she was worried she may have left it too late to have kids as her mother went through early menopause.
She said: "It's useful to know because we shouldn't hang about, but at the end of the day, what can you do? You hope it will happen. It might, it might not.
"The more pressure you put on yourself, the worse it becomes, because the one thing you want gets further out of reach. I haven't chosen to leave it until I'm 39 - that is the situation I have found myself in."
