“Thank you, we shared this photo over the weekend — I hope you appreciate it, it took 147 takes to get that photo,” Sam said.

The photo was of Sam gazing lovingly at one-year-old daughter Margot, as she lifted her mother’s top, to reveal a slightly protruding belly.

The weatherman explained that Bec’s mother took the photo.

He went on to mention his own mother, Loretta, who had been campaigning for a second grandchild from the couple since the birth of their first.

“Shout-out to my mum, Loretta, who has been the biggest campaigner for a second child,” Sam said.

“She started the campaign while in the delivery ward for Margot. Everything is on track — 16 weeks,” he laughed.

“Baby is due in August, team. Very exciting time.”

Nat Barr quickly jumped in to say congratulations to the growing family.

“Congratulations to all three of you,” Nat said.

“That’s wonderful news,” Matt Shirvington added.

Sam shared the major personal news on Saturday morning, announcing it was “round two” for his family.

“’Baby Mac’ (the sequel) premiering this August 2024,” he wrote on Instagram.

“Starring Margot as the big sister.”

The news comes after Sam announced the couple’s engagement in December, sharing a photo of the couple beaming with their engagement ring.

“My secret 2023 New Year’s resolution was to propose to my darling Rebecca sometime this year. So I guess this is what you’d call a buzzer beater,” he told followers on Instagram.

“She’s calm, strong and unintentionally funny. She’s super smart and a genuine knockout beauty.

“She makes me a better man.”

Mac and James welcomed their daughter Margot in September 2022, with the popular presenter earlier taking a month off for paternity leave.

“It’s my turn to be getting Margot up, feed her and basically becoming her personal assistant/servant,” he joked to 7Life at the time.

“Margot’s changed so much, even in the past couple of months, so it’s super exciting to have some proper quality time with her.”
