Speaking on Hits Radio today, he teased the stand in will be seated in one of the front rows. He said: "Hannah is very much ready to give birth! She hasn't given birth as of now so that's great news for me as I'm sure the production team are ready to replace me at any moment. "I think I have a stand-in, but they won't tell me who it is. I assume they'll be there tonight but that's the best thing about the NTAs - if it does happen during the ceremony everyone who could replace me is there right in front of me!" Despite the nervy countdown to the ceremony, Joel remains confident he will get the job done and said Hannah, 32, will be relaxing backstage while he does his thing. He said: "At the moment we think she's just going to come and hang in the dressing room because – I'll be honest on Hits Radio – we couldn't find a dress. And she's so pregnant now – she's six foot tall and essentially with another human being underneath her stomach - and dresses don't come in that size. You put them on and you look like Mrs Doubtfire." One aspect of the event Joel won't be present for is the after-party, with the soon-to-be dad not pushing his luck when it comes to staying out too late. Joel first hooked up with Hannah after she sent him a direct message on Instagram in 2016, when he did I'm A Celebrity . . . Get Me Out Of Here! and finished second to Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt . The couple wed three years later in an intimate ceremo){kind=link}
