Grant Denyer flying high and expecting his third child

Gold Logie winner Grant Denyer has picked up some high-flying skills and shared some exciting news. And now the TV host is back with a special series of Family Feud.

Grant Denyer hasn’t wasted time during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Gold Logie winner, who is expecting his third child with wife Chezzi, learned to become a pilot and hosted special return episodes of Family Feud featuring frontline workers which will air from Sunday.

“I didn’t want to get to the end of the COVID period and go, ‘I really should have done something with all that time’,’’ Denyer said.

“So I hit the books and studied and learned a completely skill that wasn’t television. I taught myself to fly.

“You’ve got to try to look for a silver lining in a time of darkness and I thought I’d use that period to become the domestic goddess I probably always should have been at home.

“I learnt to cook, learnt to fly and learnt to have more fun with the kids than I’ve been able to in a couple of years. There have been some good aspects.”

The Denyers announced the pregnancy news on Instagram on Tuesday.

“We’re so excited for our new arrival,’’ Chezzi said.

“Grant is a really great dad; he’s just a sweetheart and very hands-on.

“This year he’s been home much, much more and it’s really beautiful to watch.

“He’s with Scout when she races around on a motorbike and a go-kart, while Sailor’s really into books, writing, painting her nails and talking about dreams.”
