NTA's host Joel Dommett reveals secret presenter will step in if his wife gives birth

ok.co.uk:

Tonight's annual National Television Awards may or may not be presented by comedian Joel Dommett. The 38 year old's wife Hannah Cooper is currently expecting their first child together, and while chatting on Hits Radio today, Joel admitted that if she were to go into labour, the star-studded event would be put in the hands of a mystery backup. "Hannah is very much ready to give birth!" he declared on air. "She hasn’t given birth as of now so that's great news for me as I'm sure the production team are ready to replace me at any moment. "I think I have a stand-in, but they won’t tell me who it is.

I assume they’ll be there tonight but that’s the best thing about the NTAs - if it does happen during the ceremony everyone who could replace me is there right in front of me!" Despite the nervy 'will she?

won't she?' situation going on, Hannah will be apparently chilling out backstage at the NTAs as her husband gets the awards show on the road. "At the moment we think she’s just going to come and hang in the dressing room because – I’ll be honest on Hits Radio – we couldn’t find a dress," Joel revealed. "And she’s so pregnant now – she’s six-foot tall and essentially with another human being underneath her stomach - and dresses don’t come in that size.

You put them on and you look like Mrs Doubtfire." As he excitedly awaits the arrival of a screaming little bundle, Joel was able to hit up his famous pals for advice. "I feel very scared but in a really nice way — just very lucky," he shared. "We’ve kept the baby’s sex secret — it’s practically the only thing we have kept secret so it is nice to have something just for us.
