Kiwi journalist Tova O’Brien has announced she is pregnant and will give birth in the summer.

Taking to social media tonight, O’Brien wrote; “Breaking news: this summer Cam and I welcome to the world our all-dancing, pineapple-craving, long-legged, not-so-little little one.”

“It’s hard to imagine being any happier.”

O’Brien is due in December.

Speaking to the Herald, the Stuff journalist said; “[Partner] Cam and I are still pinching ourselves - though my suddenly very prominent bump leaves absolutely no room for doubt that it’s really happening!”

“I definitely need more time to make sense of this flatpack nappy changing table but we can’t wait to meet our little one.”

Before becoming Stuff’s chief political correspondent, O’Brien was a host for Today FM, which was pulled off the radio waves in March last year. She was Newshub’s political editor prior to this role.
