Amid the flurry of internet sensations who jumpstarted their careers on YouTube was a select few dubbed ‘the Brit crew’ – a savvy selection of UK-based influencers who had the globe desperately yearning for a ‘cheeky Nando’s’, Rimmel make-up deals and LUSH bath bombs.
One of the cohort’s biggest stars – Zoe Sugg (known as Zoella), who has even featured on a GCSE syllabus before being dropped for releasing a ‘sex toys review’ – has just announced she and fellow YouTube veteran Alfie Deyes are expecting their second child.
The adorable announcement will have many feeling nostalgic – and scratching their heads at what others in the group are up to.

Zoe, 33, has this week revealed that she is expecting her second child with partner Alfie Deyes, two years after the couple welcomed a baby girl.
The popular influencer confirmed the news in an Instagram reel on Monday evening and revealed she is currently four months pregnant, with the baby due at the end of the year.
Captioning her post, she wrote: ‘Our family is growing! Little girl joining us in December.’
Zoe also shared the baby’s first ultrasound scans in a short video that included Alfie and daughter Ottilie Rue, who is seen planting a kiss on her mother’s stomach.
Celebrity friends were quick to congratulate the couple, with Made In Chelsea star Louise Thompson posting: ‘Oh congratulations darling girl!!! The most beautiful family.’
The news comes after Zoe welcomed a baby girl with boyfriend Alfie in 2021.
The influencer took to Instagram to reveal she’d welcomed her bundle of joy, named Ottilie Rue, after first announcing that she was pregnant five months earlier, in March.
Zoe started her YouTube career in 2009 and has accrued more than 15 million subscribers on the platform. Zoe, pictured with her boyfriend Alfie and her brother Joe in 2016

Zoe shared the news after openly documenting her pregnancy on her YouTube channel, as she and Alfie prepared to become parents for the first time.
The social media personality had openly documented her pregnancy on social media despite joking that her ‘bump’ was nearly non-existent.

Zoe has previously chatted about her plans to have children, saying in one vlog that she and Alfie have discussed growing their family.
She said: ‘We talk about children and our future with children because we’re both very excited about that.’
Although not engaged yet, Alfie also said that it would be difficult for him to keep a proposal a surprise as their followers would likely spot him shopping for a diamond.
Zoe added that she knew her long-term beau would ‘100 per cent’ plan the proposal and pop the question ‘really nicely’ when the time comes.
However she also pointed out at the time that they would won’t be rushing into anything and will be taking things slowly.
Zoe started her YouTube career in 2009 and has accrued more than 15 million subscribers on the platform. She has 9.2 million followers on Instagram.
The social media queen still makes vlog-style videos on her channel – which has some 4.93 million subscribers.
While many are ads, they offer a glimpse into Zoe and Alfie’s lives as parents and often feature the couple’s close friend Mark Ferris.
Her lifestyle brand, Zoella (zoella.co.uk) appears to have periods of inactivity, having last posted content in 2022, but includes health and lifestyle tips, roundups and reviews.
The influencer has also dabbled in publishing, in 2014 debuting the book series Girl Online which became deeply popular with teens despite being written with a ghost-writer and receiving mixed reviews.
As well as releasing two more books for Girl Online, Zoe also put out a hospitality guide book called Cordially Invited.
And in 2020, she and co-author came out with The Magpie Society: One for Sorrow – a fictional YA mystery – with a sequel, The Magpie Society: Two for Joy, hitting the shelves in 2021.

Alfie, 29, charmed the internet with his vlog and challenge style videos on YouTube in the 2010s.
And the influencer continues to share his life in videos on his channel – where he has 3.62 million subscribers.
Earlier this year the father-of-one (soon to be two) had fans reminiscing when he met up with Joe Sugg – his daughter’s uncle – Marcus Butler and Caspar Lee in a series of videos.
However, most footage tends to be focused around his and Zoe’s little family.
Alfie is also the founder of Future Self Coffee.
‘Working closely with expert coffee roasters, I’ve combined my favourite flavours to create the best-tasting coffee,’ the website reads.
‘Alongside some of my most-used accessories, for you to have at home.
From September 2020 to September 2021, the influencer also ran a podcast – called The Secret’s Out – which saw him interview celebs including Robbie Williams, Roman Kemp, Davina McCall, Meghan Trainor and Jamie Laing.

While Joe, 31, became popular on YouTube, following in his sister’s footsteps – he truly stepped into his stride after appearing on Strictly Come Dancing in 2018, where he also he met his current girlfriend Dianne Buswell, 34.
The couple missed out on the Glitterball after Kevin Clifton and Stacey Dooley took home the trophy instead, but Joe, in an Instagram post revealing their relationship, wrote that he ‘won something a million times more special’.
The pair have been together since, with the dancer confirming that she was living with him in August 2019 and they bought a house together in February 2021.
Joe has done his fair share of work across British television, including appearances on Would I Lie To You and The Great Stand Up to Cancer Bake Off – where he famously fainted after cutting his finger.
He has also starred in the BBC drama, The Syndicate, and was part of the cast of The Amazing Maurice – an animated children’s film which came out last year.
Joe has even dabbled in musical theatre, including a three-month stint as Ogie Anhorn in the West End’s production of Waitress in 2019.

The social media star has also enjoyed a resurgence of popularity on TikTok, where she has more than 113,000 followers and some 2.3 million likes.

She has also reminisced with fans of Darcy – affectionately known as Baby Glitter in the fandom – who is now in secondary school.
Many fans of Louise back in the day may also have been familiar with her husband Matt – Darcy’s father – who she has since amicably divorced in 2014.
The YouTuber has been engaged to Liam O’Neill since 2020 and have one daughter, Pearl, who was born in 2018.
In 2019, Louise earned praise for her honesty after she admitted to worrying that she wouldn’t love her second child as much as her first.

Taking to her Instagram page ahead of baby Pearl’s first birthday, Louise admitted that a year earlier she had been suffering from anxiety over whether her feelings towards Pearl would be as special as those she felt for her firstborn, Darcy.
Revealing that her concerns were unfounded and her love was ‘doubled instead of halved’, Louise was praised by her followers for her honest confession.
Revealing that she was relieved to find her love was doubled instead of halved, she continued: ‘Pearl was cosy in there and didn’t pop out until the 14th and mine and Darcy’s team got a brand new member.
‘Thankfully, a mother’s heart is pretty cool because it doesn’t half with a new child but doubles instead.’
Encouraging mothers to support each other, Louise concluded: ‘Essentially, and I hope you don’t mind the bluntness here- it’s ok to be scared sh***ess that you might be a c**p mum, your heart will surprise you.
‘Please do feel free to share your fears or support other women in the comments but of course be respectful and kind- you never know what kind of day someone is having xxx’.

Tanya Burr has gone through a dramatic transformation since her days as a make-up YouTuber, putting her past as a content creator behind to focus on an acting career.
The 34-year-old – who became famous at the same time as her fellow YouTuber and ex-husband Jim Chapman – has also since split from him and last year gave birth to a son, Sage, with a mystery partner.
The vlogger went through a very public divorce in 2019 with fellow YouTuber Jim Chapman, with the former couple earning a legion of fans with their joint videos.
While Tanya has shared subtle glimpses of her boyfriend on social media, she has not shown his face or shared his name.
In 2019, Tanya announced her split from childhood sweetheart Jim following three and half years of marriage.
The actress and YouTuber took to her Instagram account to reveal that she and the blogger have ‘made the painful decision to no longer be together’.
Tanya’s last YouTube uploads are from four years ago, as she has since focused on acting with small appearances in Holby City, Disconnect and Love Daily among others. Pictured in 2014

Tanya went on to insist that she and Jim, who then shared a net worth of £4million, will ‘remain friends forever’ and have a ‘huge amount of love and respect for each other’.
But many were surprised to see that Jim got engaged to his girlfriend Sarah Tarleton only 16 months after splitting up with Tanya.
In November 2020, actress Tanya spoke of her split from Jim for the first time, saying there was ‘no drama’ and she hoped to always be in his life.
She said: ‘I’ve been there, where I’ve seen someone saying, “Ooh, have you heard so-and-so and so-and-so have split?” and then thought, “Let me look that up,” it’s what people do.
‘I’m not angry with anyone. People are just being people. It’s hard and horrible. I’ll never google myself again.
‘All that matters is what Jim and I think, it’s boring – he’s still my best friend. We’ve been best friends for 12 years, people will want some drama from it. We’re always going to be in each other’s lives, hopefully.’
Tanya and Jim had been in a relationship since December 2006 after meeting at sixth form college in Norwich.
They got engaged in 2012 in New York, before tying the knot at Babington House, Somerset, in September 2015.
The former couple were last pictured together at The British Fashion Awards in 2018, before announcing their separation a year later.
In November Tanya announced that she had given birth to her first child with her boyfriend, whose identity she has kept a secret.
Taking to Instagram to share a snap of her little boy’s hand, she penned the caption: ‘He’s here ✨ Our little Sage Gabriel ✨
‘Becoming a mother has been the most magic, beautiful thing…we are in a cocoon of love right now and just couldn’t be more grateful for him.
‘All I want to do is pause time and soak up every moment, each day feels like it’s passing by so fast in a blur of skin to skin cuddles, sleeplessness, breastfeeding, nappies and tears.
‘He has brought us so much happiness already, our love for him is unparalleled.’
Tanya’s last YouTube uploads are from four years ago, as she has since focused on acting with small appearances in Holby City, Disconnect and Love Daily among others.
In 2018 she played Ella on stage in Confidence, at the Southwark Playhouse – but her performance was heavily criticised and was received overwhelmingly negative reviews.
She has two films – Twist and Venice at Dawn – coming out.

Jim, 35, still semi-regularly posts family content on his YouTube channel – which boasts 2.08 million subscribers – but mostly appears to be focused on modelling and being a family man.
The YouTuber who focused on vlog and challenge style videos in the 2010s, rising to fame with his ex-wife Tanya, is now married to Sarah Tarleton.
In March 2022, Jim and Sarah announced that they had married in a low-key ceremony at Santa Barbara Courthouse .
The former YouTube star shared he and Sarah decided to get legally married ahead of their wedding celebration in Spain, and they had the ‘loveliest evening’ marking the occasion with their loved ones.
Jim and Sarah captioned their post: ‘28.3.2022, Santa Barbara Courthouse, Mr and Mrs Chapman.
‘Before our wedding celebration in Spain we decided to do the paperwork and get hitched. The happiest day together and the loveliest evening celebrating with friends and family in LA.’
In September 2021, the couple welcomed their first child, a baby girl named Margot Grace Alba.
Sharing the first picture of their baby girl, Sarah wrote on Instagram: ‘Margot Grace Alba Chapman. 5/9/2021. Special. Thankyou to my midwives Aika and Sarah – you are superwomen.’
The couple confirmed they were expecting their first baby in March 2021 in an exclusive interview with MailOnline.

At the time, the vlogger insisted he wanted to ‘shout the news from the rooftops’ and said the update had already brought them ‘unmeasurable joy.
Jim told MailOnline at the time: ‘We’re super excited to finally share our news. I’ve wanted to shout it from the rooftops since Sarah took the pregnancy test!
‘The joy this little person has brought us already is immeasurable. We can’t wait to proudly show our baby off to friends and family, and when we’re ready, the world.’
Jim went public with Sarah in June 2019, three months after announcing his split from YouTuber Tanya Burr who he was with for 12 years, and married to for three.
In May, Jim’s pregnant wife displayed her baby bump as the couple attended the British Academy Television Awards on Sunday night.
The couple, who welcomed their first child Margot 20 months ago, looked more loved up than ever as they stepped onto the red carpet at London’s Royal Festival Hall.
The couple were in high spirits as they cosied up together during the champagne reception at the star-studded event.
Jim revealed his wife Sarah was pregnant with their second child in February with a sweet clip shared to Instagram.
To announce the news, Jim showed himself and Sarah baking biscuits with their daughter that spelled the words ‘Big Sister.’
Captioning the post, Jim wrote: ‘Margot’s going to be a big sister! We are so happy and excited to have a little boy coming this summer.’
In the clip, Jim and Sarah prepared the biscuit dough with little Margot’s help, dubbed to the Taylor Swift hit Sweet Nothings.
After helping the tot prepare the ingredients, Jim and Sarah cut out the letters before placing them in the oven.
Removing the biscuits, the bakes spelled out the words ‘Big Sister,’ with the camera then panning up to show Sarah cradling her growing bump.
CASPAR LEE
Caspar Lee is engaged! The YouTube star has revealed that he ‘couldn’t be happier’ after proposing to girlfriend Ambar Driscoll during a trip home to South Africa
South African Caspar Lee was a fan-favourite for many in the Brit crew fandom, known for his prank and challenge videos.
Although he rarely posts on his channel, the YouTuber boasts a whopping 6.63 million subscribers.
The 29-year-old’s most recent post announced his engagement to Ambar Driscoll – his girlfriend of four years.
Caspar has also since become a savvy investor and entrepreneur, having even featured in Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2020.

In 2017, he was made Chief Visionary Officer at British influencer brand Influencer Ltd, later founding his own agency with Joe Sugg.
In 2020, he helped set up a South African student accommodation company and last year, launched Creator Ventures with his cousin Sasha Kaletsky – who is a former private equity investor.
According to Sifted in June 2022, it had raised $20m to back early-stage startups and talents.
In December last year, Caspar revealed that he is engaged to Ambar.
The YouTube sensation took to Instagram to share the happy news and give fans a glimpse into the romantic proposal, which took place in South Africa’s luxury farm hotel, 7 Koppies.
Gushing that he ‘couldn’t be happier’, the British-South African star jested that his new fiancée did ‘eventually say yes’ as the video showed her in shock over the moment.
Being filmed from afar, Caspar could be seen getting down on one knee before the gorgeous mountain backdrop.
Ambar, who looked stunning a black maxi dress, covered her mouth with both hands as she took a step back and began to tear up in shock.
Confirming that the emotion was out of happiness and that it was a firm yes from the beauty, the internet sensation captioned: ‘Happy tears, I promise’.
While he added ‘Couldn’t be happier’ while sharing the video to his Instagram Stories.

While Ambar took to her own profile to share a smiley selfie of the pair, holding up her left hand to show off her gorgeous engagement ring.
And in another selfie, she held up her hand with the glimmering rock and joked that she would be switching from right to left handed to show off the ring more.
‘Still in shock but I am SO HAPPY I get to marry the love of my life,’ wrote the brunette beauty to her Stories.
The duo met for the first time during one of Caspar’s fan meet and greets, which Ambar attended as a viewer of his Youtube channel.
But it was later they embarked on a relationship, when the internet star private messaged Ambar via Instagram – unaware that they had met prior.
NIOMI SMART
Congrats: Niomi Smart has revealed she has got engaged to her boyfriend Jamie White earlier this year
History: The couple first met last year in a cafe in Bali, with Niomi previously saying she instantly noticed Jamie’s ‘infectious smile’
Niomi, 31, rose to prominence at the same time as her ex-boyfriend Marcus Butler, focusing her content on health, wellbeing and vegan recipes.
She still regularly posts content on her channel, where she has 1.5 million subscribers, including vlogs, lifestyle tips and recordings of her mindfulness-focused podcast.
In 2015, Marcus and Niomi announced the end of their long-term romance in a video that has left the internet reeling.
Putting things straight, Marcus took to YouTube and released a video called ‘What’s Going On?’ in which he explained the situation, describing it as ‘probably the hardest video he has had to make’.
Speaking in the short video, Marcus said: ‘I’m sure a lot of you are aware, that me and Niomi, over the last month to six weeks haven’t been spending a lot of time together publicly and also privately.
‘As of right now, Niomi and I… we’re not together. We’ve both found separate places to live. I found mine already and am in my new place… Niomi is moving very soon.
‘The last month to two months have been very tough for both of us. Obviously, going through something in a personal relationship is a very hard thing to do.
‘Let alone when you publicise your relationship. It just makes it that whole little bit more complicated… It’s s***. It’s really s***.’
Niomi simultaneously posted a message on her social media channels, echoing Marcus’s words. She wrote: ‘I can confirm that unfortunately Marcus and I have decided to separate.
‘The support that we’ve already received has been overwhelming and I’m forever grateful to have the support of my friends and family.’
Just weeks before, the couple had announced the launch of their new company, SourcedBox, which delivers healthy snacks to your door monthly. The pair had stressed that they will continue to run the business – along with another friend – despite the split.
Marcus and Niomi – known affectionately as ‘Narcus’ online – had been dating since school and Marcus was responsible for getting Niomi involved in the world of YouTube.
Niomi has since continued to make her mark in the health and wellbeing industry, launching her own company – Smart Skin.
And earlier this year in May, she announced her engagement to her boyfriend Jamie White.
The YouTube star shared a heartwarming video to Instagram, of the moment Jamie got down on one knee.
The influencer thought she was going for a regular Sunday lunch at Jamie’s parents house and was shocked when he proposed.
Former flame: Niomi, who boasts over 1.5 million subscribers on YouTube, was previously engaged to Joe Woodward, son of former rugby star Sir Clive Woodward

In the clip, Niomi can be seen saying yes to Jamie’s proposal before he lifts her up in his arms while surrounded by their families.
Alongside the video, Niomi wrote: ‘My heart feels so full I can’t put into words how much love I feel.
‘Soon after first meeting we said we felt like we’d been magnetised to one another. It was serendipity. Like we were meant to be together.
‘I do believe the universe has a plan for all of us, and there’s no doubt in my mind that something bigger than us brought us together. You’re my gift, and I am yours. Love always wins.
‘What I thought was a Sunday lunch at Jamie’s parents’ house turned out to be the biggest day of our lives together (so far!). And how special to have shared this moment with both our families.
‘I can’t wait to grow old with you! P.s. happy 1 year anniversary.’
Niomi was inundated with well wishes from her friends and followers including Giovanna Fletcher who wrote: ‘Whooooooop!!! Congratulations!’
Former TOWIE star Mario Falcone, Made In Chelsea star Lucy Watson and singer Pixie Lott also sent their well wishes.
The couple first met last year in a cafe in Bali, with Niomi previously saying she instantly noticed Jamie’s ‘infectious smile’.
On his birthday, she wrote: ‘You have an incredible ability to put a smile on anyone’s face wherever you are, whether in an airport singing away or dancing down the street.
‘You make so many people’s days (including strangers) by giving them time, seeing them, hearing them, with such care and respect.
‘I feel blessed to be with you, to share our worlds together, and to have created not only a beautiful love, but a beautiful friendship.’
Niomi, who boasts over 1.5 million subscribers on YouTube, was previously engaged to Joe Woodward, son of former rugby star Sir Clive Woodward.
The couple began dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later but eagle-eyed fans noticed months later Niomi was no longer wearing her emerald engagement ring.
She confirmed the pair had split in a video uploaded in September 2020, saying: ‘Unfortunately Joe and I have separated.
‘I know it will come as a huge shock to you but the past four years have been magical, so full of love and I have absolutely no regrets about the past.
‘Everything’s meant to be and happen for the reason. So even though not everything has gone exactly to plan for Joe and I, I just feel like everything is meant to happen for a reason, this is life’s funny way of putting us back on the right path.
‘Even though I felt I was right at the time, I was on the wrong path and now I’ve been put on the right one.’
