Angie Kent, the 36-year-old reality star and TV presenter, has announced on social media that she is four weeks pregnant with her first child after a heartbreaking IVF battle. She did the treatment on her own.

"Results are in….I am 4 weeks pregnant," Kent wrote, adding emoji of a teary face and praying hands.

A year of grief and treatment

Kent, a former Bachelorette, had her first embryo transfer after pausing her path to solo motherhood. She stopped shortly before her father, Mark, died earlier this year.

He died two days after her embryos arrived in Brisbane for the next stage of her fertility treatment. That loss made her halt the process for a time.

"This year has brought some truly horrible moments for my family and me, and there were days when the weight of it all felt unbearable," she wrote. She said she barely had words to end the year "with this kind of light".

She also tempered the news. "I know it's very early days and the road ahead is long," she wrote.

Transfer day

Before the announcement, Kent, a Space Invaders co-host, updated fans on her transfer day in an Instagram post. Her routine included meditation, acupuncture and the classic IVF good-luck ritual of post-transfer Macca's fries.

The procedure "happened so fast I felt like I was sleepwalking", she said. She cried a little inside the clinic and more once she got back to her car.

"Tears of joy, tears from grief. All the feels at once. The full human experience," she wrote. She described thinking about how a part of her father was within her.

While she waited for her official results, Kent admitted she took a couple of tests at home. She said handing everything over to a clinic leaves little in a patient's control, and a home test gave her "a little bit of comfort and normality".

Public from the start

Kent first revealed her decision to pursue IVF alone in December 2025. She described the choice as feeling "intentional and deeply aligned" rather than a "plan B".

She said she has been transparent about every step, from her egg retrieval and embryos on the series Big Miracles to the transfer and the wait. "And I don't plan on stopping!" she wrote.

Kent thanked her fertility team, Dr Kath Whitton, Dr Simone Campbell and Dr Andrew Orr, "for making my dreams come trueeeeeeeeee". She finished with a tribute to her father.

"I feel him every single step of the way. I love you dahhhdeeeee and god damn I miss you so much," she wrote.
