Location, Location, Location star Kirstie Allsopp is expecting a baby with her property developer partner of two years, Ben Andersen.

It will be the first child for 33-year-old Kirstie, who is the daughter of former Christie's chairman Baron Hindlip. Ben has two children from a previous marriage.

"Mother had to be peeled off the ceiling, she was so ecstatic at the thought of her first grandchild," Kirstie told the Daily Mail, admitting that morning sickness hasn't stopped her craving Weetabix and Philadelphia cheese during the early stages of her pregnancy.

While the couple have no plans to marry, the TV presenter says she is reluctantly giving up her West London home. "I view my flat through my dog's eyes," she explains. "It's home and it's got a lovely garden, so I've stayed put. The money I could have made in the time I haven't moved doesn't bear thinking about. I've got a £200,000 border terrier, I reckon."

With a new member of the family due in July, the pair plan to convert two Notting Hill flats owned by Ben into a family home.

The changes in her personal life will not be affecting the TV star's career, though, as Kirstie has just signed up for a new series of her popular property shows.
