Pregnant Sophie Habboo and husband Jamie Laing set to star in new Disney+ series exploring their 'no holds barred whirlwind journey' to parenthood
The pregnant TV star, 30, and her presenter husband, 36 - who tied the knot in 2023 - will bringing their journey to becoming parents to screens, after sharing last month that they are expecting their first child.
The Made In Chelsea couple - who are known for their infectious energy and no filter truth-telling - will take viewers through the steps of the next chapter in their lives in a 'refreshingly relatable series'.
The docuseries will explore everything from Sophie's pregnancy to balancing their busy professional lives, as well as moving into their first family home, navigating support – and unsolicited advice.
Fans will be also treated to a closer look of how the IT couple managed to build up their top-charting podcast.
Speaking of the upcoming project, Jamie and Sophie said: 'For nearly a decade, we've brought audiences along the highs and lows of our personal and professional lives through TV, radio, social media and our podcasts.
'It's such an honour to now partner with the incredible teams at Disney+ and Dorothy St Pictures to bring our next chapter to viewers across the globe.
'Navigating our lives with a baby on the way has opened up a whole new stage of our relationship – we can't wait to give you a front row seat!'
The series was commissioned by Sean Doyle, Executive Director and is produced by Dorothy St Pictures in association with Jampot Productions.
Sean, Executive Director of Unscripted at Disney+, said: 'We've seen great success over the past couple of years with our Disney+ Original unscripted series such as 'Finding Michael', 'Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story', 'Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story' and more recently, 'Flintoff'.
The happy lovebirds and soon to be parents announced they were expecting their first child together earlier this month - revealing the news with an ultrasound snap.
The news comes as Disney+ also announced the reboot of a legendary dating show along with a new reality series set to explore Wayne and Coleen Rooney 's relationship 'like never before'.
Blind Date was famously hosted by the late Cilla Black from 1985 to 2003 and now the show will return to screens 'bigger, better, and bolder than ever'.
The new ten-part series will start in a secret location and contestants will be faced with the choice between three potential suitors who will be hidden away behind the legendary 'Blind Date' wall.
Disney+ promises 'head-turning' twists as the couples spend the summer living together, and production is set to begin later this year.
The iconic British game show originally saw a contestant question three potential dates hidden behind a screen – which would then slide back to reveal their chosen match.
Though not yet officially confirmed, it was previously reported the new version will take place on a tropical island, just like ITV 's Love Island, hosted by Maya Jama – with contestants battling it out for a dream wedding on golden sands.
A TV insider previously told The Sun: 'This sounds like a radical departure from the old Blind Date, one that definitely has hints of Love Island about it.
'But fans will recall a lot of the dates took place in hot, sunny climes abroad, and producers want to recapture some of the steamy fun, and expand upon that.
'Even the wedding element has hints of the old show because the dream was always that the dates on the programme would lead to couples tying the knot.'

Lily Allen admits she ‘can't remember' how many abortions she's had and says ‘I used to get pregnant all the time'
LILY Allen admitted she's lost count of the number of abortions she's had, and said she used to get pregnant "all the time". The singer, 40, opened up about pregnancies and motherhood to best pal Miquita Oliver, 41, on the latest edition of their podcast Miss Me? 4 4 Mum-of-two Lily began by revealing she's on her third or fourth contraceptive coil, describing life before them as a "complete disaster area". She said: "Yeah I'd get pregnant all the time, all the time." The provocative pop star then changed the lyrics to the Sinatra classic My Way, singing: "Abortions I've had a few... but then again... I can't remember exactly how many." Lily added: "I can't remember. I think maybe like, I want to say four or five." Former T4 presenter Miquita then chipped in, admitting she'd had the same amount. She said:"I've had about five too! Lily, I'm so happy I can say that and you can say it and no one came to shoot us down, no judgment. We've had about the same amount of abortions." Lily continued: "I remember once getting pregnant and the man paying for my abortion, and me thinking it was so romantic." Miquita agreed with her assessment, but Lily told her she has changed her opinion over time. She now views it as a prudent financial decision, saying: "No, I don't think it's generous or romantic. Think about that investment, like that's, how much is it? 500 quid. Kids are a lot more expensive." Both women shared their frustration at feeling abortion is a taboo topic that shouldn't be discussed publicly. Lily Allen seen on 'date' with actor James Norton at festival after joining dating app "I felt really embarrassed to even say that I had more than one abortion," said Miquita. "Why the f*** should I be ashamed? I have had a few." Lily said: "It actually irritates me, and I've said it before on the record. I've seen memes going around sometimes, on Instagram from pro-abortion accounts or whatever, whenever this conversation comes up, and suddenly you start seeing people posting things about extraordinary reasons for having an abortion. "Like: 'My aunt had a kid that had this disability,' or whatever, 'if she went full term it was going to kill her, so we have to.' It's like, shut up! "Just: 'I don't want a f***ing baby right now.' Literally: 'Don't want a baby' is enough reason." Lily's children - Ethel, 12, and Marnie, 11 - are from her relationship with ex-husband Sam Cooper. She came under fire last this year for saying that having kids "ruined" her music career. 4 4 She said: 'I love them and they complete me, but in terms of pop stardom, they totally ruined it. 'I get really annoyed when people say you can have it all because, quite frankly, you can't.' Lily also opened up about her own childhood, calling it a "painful" time due to her film producer mum's career keeping her away from the family home. She said: "Did it have an effect on us as children? Yes it did. Do I hold that against her, no I don't - although it was pretty painful at the time." Lily continued: "People pitched in and they helped and I just don't think that sort of thing is available to us now." More recently, the Smile singer split from actor husband David Harbour in December after spending months living apart. She has been single since, but two weeks ago she was pictured moving on with Brit star James Norton as they shared a kiss at Lido Festival, London. One onlooker said: 'James and Lily looked very into each other and they were snogging backstage. 'We were all quite surprised to see them there together, let alone kissing. 'I don't think they've even known each other that long, but it was a fun hang-out backstage and they got taken away by the vibe.' Abortion Laws in Different Countries The UK In England, Scotland and Wales abortions are allowed before 24 weeks of pregnancy. They can be carried out after 24 weeks in exceptional circumstances. The termination is only legal when performed by a licensed medical professional (a doctor) and it must also be signed off by two other doctors. Czech Republic Abortion can be legally performed up to 12 weeks for any reasons and up to 23 weeks for medical reasons. It can also be carried out at any point of pregnancy in cases of fetal abnormality. The US After the US Supreme Court overturned Roe V Wade, the national right to abortion has been abolished. Now the abortion laws are in the hands of each state. Abortion remains legal in 28 states, and In other states, abortion is illegal with rare exceptions such as rape or threat to life. As of January 2024, 14 states have completely banned abortions while two states - Georgia and South Carolina - have prohibited abortions after six weeks of pregnancy. France Abortion in France is legal until 14 weeks after conception. They can be performed at later stages if two doctors can certify that doing so will prevent harm or risk to the life of an expectant mother; or if a child will suffer from an incurable illness.
