In a twist that feels straight out of a reality TV script, Georgina Howard has revealed she is expecting her first child — but it’s the identity of the father that has truly stunned fans.
The 32-year-old model is pregnant with Marc Francis-Baum, 55 — the father of her former Made In Chelsea co-star Issy Francis-Baum.
Georgina, who previously dated Alex Mytton, shared the news on Instagram on New Year’s Day with the cryptic caption: “Third wheel for ’26” — confirming their baby is due in 2026.
It also marked the first time she publicly introduced Marc on her social media, leaving many wondering just how long their relationship has been quietly blossoming behind the scenes.
Despite the unexpected pairing, the announcement was met with warmth from the Made In Chelsea circle, with names like Sophie Habboo and Tara Keeney sending their congratulations.
Even Issy herself appeared supportive, commenting sweetly under the post with a playful “goo goo” and a heart emoji — a reaction that only added to the intrigue of their unconventional family dynamic.
The trio were recently spotted enjoying a sun-soaked getaway in Bali earlier this year, with Georgina sharing relaxed bikini snaps alongside Issy, 24 — hinting at a surprisingly harmonious relationship between the soon-to-be stepmother and daughter.
By March, Georgina revealed she was already 33 weeks pregnant, proudly showcasing her growing baby bump in a series of glowing photos.
While Georgina continues her modelling career with London agency Models 1, Marc has built an impressive reputation as a businessman, co-owning ventures including Barworks, Camden Town Brewery, and East London Liquor Co.
His journey hasn’t always been glamorous — he once worked behind a bar before climbing the ladder into entrepreneurship.
Fans of Made In Chelsea may remember Marc from his brief but memorable appearance during Issy’s time on the show, where viewers were quick to praise his striking looks.
At the time, social media lit up with reactions, with one fan joking: “Is Issy’s dad single? Asking for a friend,” while another added: “Can we keep Issy’s dad as a main character?”
In a surprising turn of events, it seems the man who once stole the spotlight as a fan-favourite dad has now stepped into a whole new chapter — one that’s rewriting the rules of modern relationships.
