Karl and Jasmine Stefanovic pregnant: reports
Karl and Jasmine Stefanovic are reportedly expecting their first child together, after celebrating their baby shower in New York at the weekend.
Karl Stefanovic and his wife Jasmine are expecting their first child together, according to reports.
Entertainment reporter Peter Ford announced the news on Perth radio show 6PR Breakfast with Millsy & Baz this morning, saying he had confirmation the high-profile couple were pregnant.
“We’ve got confirmation that Karl Stefanovic is becoming a dad, Jasmine is pregnant,” Ford said.
“They had the baby shower on the weekend, which is kind of a giveaway sign.
“He’s about to make his big comeback, and now all the excitement of a new baby on the way.
“Good luck to them.”
It comes after photos surfaced of Jasmine cradling her stomach at a baby shower in New York City at the weekend, where she is celebrating her one-year wedding anniversary with Karl.
The pair are yet to announce the news.
“I love baby showers,” a shower attendee wrote over an Instagram Story, while another friend posted a baby emoji over a photo of Jasmine.
Karl, 45, and Jasmine, 34, were married in Cabo, Mexico, on December 8 last year, in an extravagant celebration that was said to be the nail in the coffin for Karl’s career as host of Today.
But less than a year later Channel 9 were forced to backtrack on their decision to sack Karl due to dismal ratings with Georgie Gardner and Deborah Knight as co-hosts this year.
Karl will return as host in 2020 alongside former 60 Minutes reporter Allison Langdon.
Karl and Jasmine have been the subject of pregnancy rumours ever since they got married, with reports they have been trying for a baby for months.
The Daily Telegraph reported in April Karl had undergone a second vasectomy reversal surgery, after undergoing an initial one straight after their wedding.

Vasectomy reversals are not always successful.
Karl, who underwent a vasectomy in 2010, is already a father to three children from his marriage to Cassandra Thorburn: Jackson, 19, Ava, 13, and River, 12.
They split after 21 years together, with Karl announcing their separation in September 2016. He met Jasmine in December that year, before they announced their engagement in February 2018.
