In a surprising revelation, MailOnline has disclosed that Emily Atack’s new boyfriend and the father of her unborn baby is none other than her step-cousin, Dr Alistair Garner. The Inbetweeners actress joyfully shared the news of her pregnancy on Instagram last week, featuring a black and white photo proudly displaying her baby bump. At 34 years old, Emily expressed her overwhelming joy about being five months pregnant, with an expected due date in April.
To prepare for the arrival of their first child, Emily and Alistair have taken the significant step of moving in together and setting up their new home. The familial connection between the couple is traced back through Emily’s mother, Kate Robbins, who is the sister of Alistair’s stepmother, Jane Garner.
The roots of Emily and Alistair’s connection go back almost three decades, as they were introduced during the early nineties when Emily’s aunt began dating Alistair’s father, Stephen Garner, leading to their marriage in 1994. Despite initially keeping their relationship under wraps, Emily and Alistair have grown closer over the past year, culminating in the public announcement of their impending parenthood.
In a surprising twist, Emily took to Instagram to share the news with her followers, posting a photo of her baby bump and expressing a mix of emotions. She stated that she has ‘never been so happy and terrified at the same time.’ The revelation has captivated fans and sparked discussions about the complexities of family connections and unexpected romantic ties.
