That came after working throughout Euro 2024 and keeping the joyful news a secret.

But after going public between the Euros and Olympics in the summer, she has now taken to Instagram with a photo of the bump.

Woods took to her story on Friday night with a black-and-white snap decked out in a white T-shirt and comfy joggers as she looked down lovingly at her belly.

She opted against captioning the post to her 765,000 followers and let the proud picture speask for itself.

Woods spent three weeks in Paris fronting Eurosport's coverage of the Olympics before returning to the UK for the 2024-25 football season.

But it was not long until she announced more wonderful news on social media.

In September, Woods and Collard got engaged.

The happy couple started dating last year and the former Love Island star got down on one knee on the beach in Cornwall to pop the big question.

The glamorous star then beamed live on TV as she showed off her stunning engagement ring.

Woods is the lead presenter on TNT's Champions League football and the diamond dazzled on screen during the build-up and reaction to Manchester City's home clash with Inter Milan.

She has also continued her boxing work with TNT Sports - and even had to apologise live on air when Tyson Fury dropped an F-bomb during an interview.

The former Sky Sports and talkSPORT host has not announced when the baby is due or when the loved-up pair will tie the knot just yet.

But fans and colleagues have expressed their overwhelming excitement for the popular presenter.

Jack Grealish, Ally McCoist, Piers Morgan, Fran Kirby, Ray Parlour, Carlton Cole, Tony Bellew and John Terry's wife Toni were all among the celebrities to comment on the engagement post.

How Laura Woods tamed Love Island bad boy Adam Collard

HE was one of Love Island's most notorious bad boys - but one woman seems to have changed all that.

Personal trainer Adam Collard, 28, has been dating Euro 2024 presenter Laura Woods, 36, since 2023.

The former loverat has called her “The One,” spent Christmas with her - the first time he’s done so with a girlfriend since he was 21 - and kept their relationship relatively out of the limelight, seemingly on Laura’s wishes.

It’s a far cry from the man who admits himself he’s been “ruthless” in the past, claims to have had 25 girlfriends, and spent many years partying and juggling flings with girls including Zara McDermott and Lottie Moss.

Relationship expert Jo Hemmings says: “He’s now 28, he's a professional with a job, and I think he just went off the whole idea of ever realistically meeting somebody on a TV show.

“He's now met somebody who is also a professional, and is only on TV as a byproduct of what she does in sport.

“He’s got himself in a comfortable place. Financially, he's older, he's more mature, he's more settled.

“He once played into this roguish character that people saw him as, and became a parody of himself. But look who's laughing now.

“He's got a fabulous girlfriend, they're in a long term relationship, he's well off, he's still in the public eye, and he's getting on with his life in the way that I think he always wanted.”
