Yet now has confirmed she is expecting her first child.

The Alma’s Not Normal star took to her page to share an image of her in a red dress, having dinner with partner Carniel Francis Levy.

They flashed smiles as they posed on opposite sides of their table, which was adorned with a white table cloth and menus and surrounded by flowers.

The snapshot itself gave no hint as to the announcement, before Sophie made the big reveal in her caption and in subsequent pictures showing her scan.

She wrote: “WE’RE HAVING A BABY BOY!

“Coming November 2025. Our lives are about to change forever, in the most chaotic, joyful, and magical way...

“And yes, we’re already arguing about baby names.”;;

SCREEN QUEEN

Sophie voiced reality show The Circle since 2018.

She has also appeared in person on a number of TV programmes including Still Open All Hours and Click And Collect.

She has also been on a number of comedy shows including The Tez O Clock Show, Class Dismissed and Live from The Comedy Store.

More recently, she created Alma’s Not Normal which is set to be released in 2021.

On stage, Sophie’s Branded tour was a national sell-out including spending three weeks at SOHO Theatre in London.

She was also named on The Times Best Living Comedians List in 2018.

The mum-to-be claimed the Herald Angel Award in 2017, while also bagging the 2018 BBC Caroline Aherne Bursary title.

FAN SHOCK

Sophie stunned fans – with her sweary acceptance speech cut – at the recent BAFTA ceremony in London.

The star, who took home her second Bafta for comedy series Alma’s Not Normal, couldn’t resist cursing when taking to the stage – though made multiple efforts not to.

The excitable star admitted as she took to the stage: “I’m not allowed to swear and all I want to do is Beep Beep, Bl**dy Beep!!”;; before attempting to replace swears with something else.

“I just want to say, these lot are flupping brilliant. Blimming fabulous!”;; she joked.

However, she later slipped up and let a few out.

The offensive words were edited out by the time they made it to broadcast on BBC One.
