Declan Donnelly, one half of Britain’s beloved TV duo Ant & Dec, is once again melting hearts – this time with a peek inside the brand-new nursery created for baby number three. The rare glimpse into his family life has fans swooning, with many calling the dreamy space “straight out of a fairytale.”
While Dec and his wife Ali Astall have kept much of their private life low-key, they’ve recently shared a few touching details about preparing for their growing family. The couple, who already share daughter Isla (born in 2018) and a second child welcomed in recent years, are now ready to embrace baby number three – and the nursery is proof of just how magical that journey has become.
So, what’s inside the nursery that has everyone talking?
According to insiders close to the couple, the room has been designed with soft pastel tones, plush textures, and gentle lighting – a perfect blend of luxury and warmth. Think delicate wallpapers with whimsical woodland creatures, cloud-shaped mobiles floating above the crib, and a hand-painted mural of a moonlit forest that has fans calling it “like something from a Disney movie.”
A source shared:
“Declan and Ali wanted a space that felt calm, cosy, and filled with imagination. Every detail – from the reading nook with oversized cushions to the vintage rocking horse in the corner – has been chosen with so much love.”
The nursery reportedly includes sustainable materials and handcrafted furniture from boutique UK artisans, including a custom-made crib carved with the baby’s initials. There’s even a “quiet corner” where Isla can sit and read with her new sibling, reinforcing the couple’s commitment to making this transition feel special for their entire family.
Social media has erupted with admiration after glimpses of the décor were shared on fan accounts. Comments like “This is the dream nursery!” and “It’s pure magic – just like Declan himself” have filled timelines, with one fan writing:
“It honestly looks straight out of a fairytale – I wouldn’t expect anything less from Dec.”
Although Dec has yet to publicly confirm the baby’s gender or due date, the buzz surrounding baby number three continues to grow. Known for being a hands-on dad, Dec has previously spoken about how fatherhood changed his life, calling it “the most rewarding role I’ve ever had.”
And with a nursery like this waiting, it’s clear that baby No.3 is already surrounded by love, comfort, and just a touch of stardust.
