Hit Weekend Breakfast host Angus O’Loughlin announces he and partner Emily are pregnant

Hit Weekend Breakfast host Angus O’Loughlin has announced  that he and his partner Emily Hadlin are expecting their first child together.

The radio presenter excitedly shared the news with co-host Dylan Alcott on Saturday.

He also explained that the stage four lockdown in Melbourne, where the couple are based, has made the experience difficult as they are apart from their families who are in New South Wales. 

Angus said: ‘While our families have been amazing and incredibly supportive, we haven’t been able to be with them physically to share this experience.’

The father-to-be also went on to share that he has been unable to attend the important scans and appointments because of the lockdown restrictions.  

‘We had the 13 week scan during the week and I just had to drop Emily off at the hospital and had to wait out the front. 

‘Emily came back into the car on a high, she had just seen our baby for the first time, and I’ve missed that moment. It was very tough,’ he said.  

Angus also used the announcement to urge listeners to take the lockdown and social distancing seriously.  

‘It was pretty tough to miss those scans and I’m going to miss the ones in the future as well. But I understand the process.  

‘This is just our experience, this is our hurdle, I fully understand there are many people out there in far worse scenarios,’ he said.

‘But if I can accept that I will miss some key moments over the next few months, surely people can stay at home if they’re sick… Social distance when needed and wear a mask,’ he added.

According to Angus’ Instagram posts, he and Emily, who is the daughter of Sony Music Australia CEO, Denis Handlin, have been together since August 2019.
