Meanwhile, since the announcement, Dec has gained even more popularity after he effortlessly presented both Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway and Britain's Got Talent without his co-star Ant McPartlin.
With Ant taking time away from the spotlight, Dec was praised by fans for his professionalism, with many calling for him to present I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here on his own later in the year.
Dec and Ali's baby is due later in the year. 👶
