She may have jumped from terrifying heights and scaled buildings for fun, but Who Dares Wins host Tania Zaetta has a new challenge on the cards as she prepares to enter parenthood, with not one but two bundles of joy.
After an emotional few years, the 48 -year-old and her partner Chris Rogers, 35, were thrilled to announce their pregnancy via donor eggs in a tell-all interview with Woman’s Day.
Hoping to dispel myths around motherhood, Tania opened up about pregnancy, heartache, her perfect man and their overwhelming joy for the arrival of their twins.
“It’s very confronting when you hear the number and quality of your eggs is quite low at 45. But there were so many woman claiming miracle babies at 45, I just thought it would happen quite easily,” the TV star admitted.
With a lifelong desire to become a mum, Tania said it has been a rollercoaster ride for the loved-up couple, who met in the Mornington Peninsula while she was enjoying a girls weekend away.
The couple spent two years researching options before travelling to Greece, where they found an anonymous donor and began the process of IVF.
Tania said she fell pregnant after her first treatment and took to Instagram on Monday to reveal the big news.
“Impossible to hide this big beautiful miracle belly any longer so here it is. We’re 21wks pregnant with TWINS! I love this man to the moon & back @thebigchis “

Although she’s revealed the babies are due at the end of September, Tania is keeping the twins’ gender a secret for now and said they haven’t decided on names at the moment, preferring for now to call them lefty and righty.
“To be able to have an egg donor baby, that’s the miracle to me,” Tania told Woman’s Day. “When the 12-week scan showed a second heartbeat, it was absolutely incredible.”
Since Who Dares Wins ended, Tania has kept busy with multiple fitness ventures, including running pilates workshops and releasing an exercise book.
