Alex Jones is returning to work at The One Show onThursday following the birth of her daughter Annie.

The television presenter began her maternity leave for her third child back in August.

McFly star Harry Judd will join her as host. The duo will be announcing on the primetime BBC One show what it will be doing to support annual charity push Children In Need this year.

Jones, 44, welcomed Annie to the world in August.

The Welsh host already has two sons, Teddy and Kit, with her insurance broker husband Charlie Thomson.

“We have some news. Our beautiful daughter came safely into the world on Saturday afternoon 21.08.21,” she wrote in an Instagram post.

“Tiny, but perfectly formed we are all beyond happy and besotted by her, especially Ted and Kit.

“Watching them with their brand new little sister is just the best and we can’t believe how lucky we are to have the three of them and to be a family of five. It still doesn’t feel real.”

At the time, the star expressed her gratitude to “everyone at the Queen Charlotte hospital” with special thanks to “super midwife” Audrey.

Friends and famous faces offered their congratulations to the couple, including Jones‘ co-host Jermaine Jenas.

“Congratulations to you both amazing news,” he commented with a heart emoji.

Singer Ronan Keating added: “Congratulations to you all. Amazing news.”
