Sophie Dahl and Jamie Cullum have announced they are expecting their second child together. The couple stepped out together on Wednesday night to attend a fashion awards show, where Sophie showed off her growing bump. The pair's outing came despite Jamie once revealing they prefer to avoid glamorous parties. He has said previously: "I live an extremely unglamorous lifestyle. I choose to hang out with my friends who aren't in that world and I choose to go to gigs and to the pub and play football. "To be honest I'm a geek and so is Sophie. We're just two people who met and swiftly fell totally in love. That's the end of the story."
The couple's new arrival will be a sibling to their daughter Lyra, who was born in March last year. A spokesman for the couple said at the time: "Musician Jamie Cullum and his wife, the author and presenter Sophie Dahl, have become parents. Their daughter Lyra was born on March 2.
