Posting a picture cradling her baby bump, Jenny – who has not revealed who her partner is – told her followers: “They say things sometimes come in threes – engagement, house, now baby G. Feeling very lucky indeed.”
The former tennis player – who has covered everything from Wimbledon to the Women’s Six Nations – was inundated with messages from her famous pals and fans.
Fellow presenter Laura Woods commented: “Amazing news congratulations! Xxx”
Golfer Annabel Croft remarked: “Congratulations, such wonderful news.”
And Sky host Eleanor Roper added: “Aww congratulations!!!”
Jenny gave an insight into her pregnancy as she shared a video made during Wimbledon.
She wrote alongside it: “Always so proud to present and voice the women’s preview to the Wimbledon final of @bbcsport coverage.
“Not going to lie, I puked my way through this shoot – morning sickness has not been my friend but we got there thanks to pick n mix and most importantly to Joe Bamonte, @bensmith_cam and the editing team in Salford.”
Jenny, who hails from Scotland, is known for her work on BBC Sport and TNT Sports, where she specialises in tennis, rugby, and golf.
She previously opened up about being a female in a male-dominated industry and told the Daily Mail: “As a female you get commented on how you look and what you wear rather than how you perform as a presenter or reporter.
“Then people criticise the angle of your questions or how articulate you were in the way that you said something. That p****s me off, for sure.
“I use Twitter/X for work but am not active on it. I’m sensitive and can’t hack that (abuse) side of it, so I don’t even bother looking.”
Jenny was sent lots of messages of congratulations
