"Sophie's pregnant!"
The studio then erupted into applause, with overjoyed faces seen all around.
Matt then spoke of Sophie's bump, saying: "You can just about see it."
Sophie smiled and said: "Just about!"

She shared a snap four days ago as she posed on a mountain top, surrounded by trees and greenery.
Wearing some black cycling shorts and a grey t-shirt, Sophie beamed and grinned as she cradled her blossoming bump.
In the caption she penned: "Sausage Pasta Wyburd-Kumar, growing steadily in my tummy and landing with us this autumn!!"
Sophie continued: "P.S. writing recipes for a living when for 3 months all you want to eat is spinach and ricotta tortellini is no joke, but the little person in there will be very much worth it I'm sure."
Fans and friends were quick to flood Sophie with sweet messages in the comments section.
Fellow chef Alfie Steiner said: "Oh em geeee contractions !!!! They are going to be eating THE best food."
"The best news!!! Congratulations lovely," said an influencer.

'It's hard on both of them, but especially challenging with Levi since he can't express what he's feeling. 'Thankfully, both kids are now back to full health and we're so grateful!!!

After leaving the soap Ricky cracked America starring in teen drama The 100 and America Gods. He also appeared in Strictly Come Dancing in 2009.

Wallis Day played Holly Cunningham in the soap for years before leaving. In 2021 Wallis won the role of Batwoman in DC's series, taking over from Ruby Rose. Earlier this year, The Sun revealed Charlie would be exiting the soap again. A source said at the time: 'Charlie has finished his stint filming. 'He's hugely popular and everyone's really sad to see him go but the storyline is great and it was all planned out before his return. 'There's going to be a big send off for Freddie as the soap ramps up for a huge summer leading to the 30th later this year.'
