The Apprentice’s Stella English shows off baby bump as she leaves The Dorchester with snooker ace boyfriend Ali Carter
The Apprentice winner is sixth month's pregnant
STELLA English has confirmed she is pregnant.
The former Apprentice winner debuted her baby bump in a striking red dress as she left The Dorchester in London with partner, snooker ace Ali Carter.
"What with Ali being diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2013 and a month later being diagnosed with lung cancer it's just fantastic for him - and me," Stella told the outside a bash at the hotel.
Professional snooker player Ali, who beat cancer in 2013, added: "After all I've been through I can't believe my luck. Stella's been a positive influence on and off the table.
"I'm back in the top sixteen and looking forward to welcoming our little bundle in the next few weeks. We couldn't be happier!"
Looking just like loved-up teens, the pair, both 36, were snapped laughing and joking as they left the World Snooker Dinner and Awards.
The pair made their official debut as a couple at the same event last year.
Friends confirmed the connection and added that they have been seeing each other for a few months now.

A source previously said: “Things are going really well so far. They’ve been hanging out at her place down in Kent, and their friends know how happy
they both are.
“It’s great news for both of them- they’re lovely people and seem to have found real happiness.”
Things seem to be finally on the up for Ali, who underwent a devastating string of cancer battles in 2013.
He was diagnosed with lung cancer just a month after being given the all-clear from testicular cancer, and was forced to pull out of his beloved sport while he underwent treatment.
When he eventually returned to the game in late 2014, the audience gave him a standing ovation.
Stella, who won the 2010 series of The Apprentice, had a famous falling out with boss Alan Sugar after the show.
She resigned from her job with Lord Sugar after branding her new position as one of a "glorified PA".
Stella narrowly escaped having to declare bankruptcy after going head-to-head with the business mogul in a series of legal battles, suing him for constructive dismissal.
