He delights millions with his hilarious reviews of kebabs and pizzas – but fast food funnyman Danny Malin is expecting his best delivery yet.
Danny, 43, whose YouTube channel Rate My Takeaway has notched up more than 108 million views, is to be a dad again.
He met belly dancer Sophie Mei Lan, 34, in November and they got engaged a month later. Now they are surprised to have a bun in the oven, due in September – despite Danny having a vasectomy.
The Yorkshire duo met when Sophie, a journalist and vegan fitness guru, interviewed 22st Danny for her own YouTube channel, Sophie’s World.
Both are already parents – Danny has Summer, 13, and George, 11, while Sophie has Jasmine, 11, and Arianna, eight.

Danny, from Leeds, said: “The bubba is a miracle child and is cooking nicely in Sophie’s tummy.
