And the baby is due any day now, as Joel previously revealed that the arrival could clash with his NTAs commitment. Speaking with comedians Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe on their podcast Parenting Hell, Joel said that the NTAs are "fairly soon to the due date". He added, "They say they've got a contingency but they won't tell me who it is."
Meanwhile, Rob joked, "If she goes into the labour the day of the NTA's which is live from the O2, just let me know and I'll get there and I'll host it."

Joel Dommett is reported to have a net worth of around £2.4 million.
