Popular Aussie radio presenter and television host Fifi Box has announced she is pregnant – but it was an announcement that’s a game-changer.
Box, 41, revealed her news on Instagram on Sunday, in a video where she told daughter Trixie, five, that she was “good sick” because there was a baby in her “tummy”. The video was sweet, and the accompanying caption heartwarming.
“We’re having a baby!” Box wrote.
“Yes, Trixie and I are over the moon/jumping out of our skin/can’t stop smiling/floating on air/dancing in the streets/walking on sunshine and every other metaphor that conveys absolute pure joy…Being a mum is my greatest joy in life…I will cherish Trixie and this little angel forever.”
The video has been viewed more than 151,000 times, and has attracted over 2,500 comments of congratulations.
In the social media euphoria, one might not have realised there was something very different about Box’s announcement.

I have to wonder - as Trixie has contact and visits with her dad Grant Kenny, and I imagine, time with his extended family, what's the plan for the new child growing up seeing his or her sister having that? No matter how much love Fifi (and Trixie) lavish on this child, all the toys, attention, cuddles, great education, nice house, family holidays can't make up for this. There'd have to be a plan formed with psychologist advice, surely?
Big deal
