Tanya Hennessy is expecting her first child with her husband Thomas Poole, ten months after they married in a stunning Byron Bay ceremony.

Body+Soul magazine shared the news to Instagram on Thursday evening, alongside an image of the comedian on the cover of the weekend supplement.

‘This kid is going to be so uncomfortably loved,’ Tanya quipped on the cover.

‘We’re overjoyed to break the news that Tanya Hennessy is pregnant!’ the Instagram caption read.

‘In this Sunday’s issue, we sit down with Tanya for an in-depth chat about her emotional fertility journey, the realities of endometriosis and IVF, and her message of hope for other women.’

The exciting news follows Tanya’s seven-year fertility struggle.

In 2022, Tanya opened up about her struggles with having a baby with her partner Thomas.

‘Getting pregnant is a f***ing full-time job and I am at my wits end,’ she told her social media followers at the time.

She continued: ‘It hurts that my body won’t do what I want it to. I’m bloody over it.

‘Something that is seemingly so easy for so many, feels impossible for us. It’s infuriating. The endless calls and the blood tests and internals.’

She said she’s ‘not 100% certain they know or care what’s going on with’ her since they deal with so many patients every day.

‘I’m exhausted. Burnt out. I’m not burnt out by work but by the fatigue of [trying to conceive]. It’s impossibly hard,’ she said.

‘You want to just get up and do it. Like work, but you get fed up from trying and getting nothing from it.’

‘Plus, I’ve been doing that for years and it comes to a point of frustration that’s hard to bare [sic]. I feel like I’m between two worlds. Where I want to be and where I am,’ she continued.

Tanya opened up to Mamamia earlier this year about her ‘aggressive’ case of endometriosis, a painful disorder in which the inner lining of the uterus grows on the outside of female reproductive organs.

She said it was so bad it had grown over her bladder and she would need surgery to get the extra tissue out.

‘And then it’ll be a couple of months and then we can try naturally again, or we’ll have to go down the IVF path,’ she added.
