YouTube star Tanya Burr expecting first child with mystery boyfriend

Tanya Burr has revealed that she's pregnant with her first child.

The YouTube star, 33, shared the happy news on Instagram on Tuesday.

The expectant mum posted an adorable black and white snap of her blossoming bump as she and her mystery partner cradled.

Actress Tanya captioned the snap: "We love you so much already little [peanut]."

She chose not to tag her baby daddy in the post after previously revealing she "overshared" during her last relationship with ex-husband Jim Chapman.

Tanya and Jim went through a very public divorce together in 2019 - but the pair have since settled down with new partners.

Their joint YouTube fans were heartbroken to hear the pair had split at the time.

Tanya and Jim had been in a relationship since December 2006 after meeting at sixth form college in Norwich.

They got engaged in 2012 in New York, before tying the knot at Babington House, Somerset, in September 2015.

However, Tanya is now dating someone new - but chooses not to share his face or name on her social media.

She told The Telegraph last year: "I'm very loved up. It's very exciting."

Tanya added: "I overshared at the beginning [of my online career] without realising the effect it would have, so I really reined it in.

"I've been quite private for a few years now and my audience are used to it, so they don't expect anything any more."

Back in November 2020, the star opened up about her split from best friend of 12 years Jim for the first time.

Tanya said: "I've been there, where I've seen someone saying, 'Ooh, have you heard so-and-so and so-and-so have split?' and then thought, 'Let me look that up,' it's what people do.

"I'm not angry with anyone. People are just being people. It's hard and horrible. I'll never google myself again.

"All that matters is what Jim and I think, it's boring – he's still my best friend. We've been best friends for 12 years, people will want some drama from it. We're always going to be in each other's lives, hopefully."

Her pregnancy comes three months after Jim married Sarah Tarleton.

They got hitched in March at Santa Barbara Courthouse in California, before celebrating in Spain.

The couple also share daughter Margot together - who was born in September last year.
