“It's a Boy!”
Taking to Instagram in September, Mayor shared the happy news with her followers, posting a scan photo alongside a card reading, "congratulations, it's a … boy." Her lighthearted caption read, "I'm not a fan of surprises but this one is defo growing on me (literally)," paired with a blue heart and boy prince emoji.
“Racing Star Turned TV Presenter”
Mayor, an ITV and Sky Sports racing presenter, saw her promising jockey career cut short by injury. She's now making headlines for her relationship with former Scotland rugby captain Stuart Hogg. The pair's romance became public last November, with Mayor posting a picture captioned, "the least Mondayest Monday ever" alongside a loved-up emoji and the song 'Better Together' playing.
“Jet-Set Life, Courtroom Struggles”
In August, Mayor and Hogg were spotted on holiday in France, just days after Hogg's wife Gillian had given birth to their fourth child. The timing of the relationship's reveal caused a stir, but the couple have continued to flaunt their glamorous new life together.
Yet behind the scenes, Hogg, 32, has been embroiled in legal battles. He recently appeared at Jedburgh Sheriff Court, where he faces allegations of sending “alarming and distressing” messages to a second alleged stalking victim.
As the couple prepares for the arrival of their baby, Hogg's legal troubles continue to cast a shadow over the happy news.
The Three Richest Couples in World Rugby

Mike and Zara Tindall – £20m
Mike Tindall is known not just for his rugby prowess but for his royal connections. As the husband of Zara Phillips, the granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II, Tindall has become a prominent figure in British media.
Nicknamed "The Fridge" due to his imposing physique, Tindall was a stalwart on the rugby field, famously breaking his nose at least eight times over the course of his career. Since retiring from the sport, he's made a name for himself in the entertainment world, appearing on popular reality shows such as I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here, Bear Grylls: Mission Survive, The Jump, Shark Cage, Celebrity Poker Club, and All-Star Poker Challenge.
Despite his success in sports and entertainment, Tindall's wealth has been largely bolstered by his royal ties, with his net worth estimated at £20 million, according to British media.
