Declan Cleary and Sarah Todd are living the high life before their bundle of joy arrives at the beginning of next year.

The couple, who went public with their romance earlier this year after meeting on the 17th season of MasterChef Australia, celebrated their upcoming addition with a baby shower, babymoon and, of course, lots of delicious food.

Speaking to Daily Mail ahead of becoming a first-time dad, Declan revealed that he and Sarah, 38, enjoyed one last holiday before the baby comes – and it was a luxurious final hoorah.

‘We’ve been over in Dubai and India, which I think will be the last international trip,’ the 27-year-old said.

‘So we kind of took that as a babymoon, relaxing at The Atlantis on the Palm in Dubai and just doing all those loungy, resorty, hotel holiday activities,’ he added.

The glitzy resort is an A-lister hotspot and has seen the likes of Beyoncé , Kendall Jenner and Kylie Minogue check in for a night or two.

However, Atlantis boasts a whopping price tag, with a standard room for two ranging from $748 to $8,965 a night.

‘This place is truly something else,’ Sarah captioned an Instagram post, which showed the couple enjoying the spoils of the grand getaway.

The pair could be seen visiting the water park, checking out the state-of-the-art  aquarium and eating at swanky restaurants such as Seafire Steakhouse and Nobu.

They also enjoyed a baby shower in Melbourne a couple of weeks prior, where ‘family and friends flew in from all over Australia’ to celebrate their incoming bundle of joy.

Guests were treated to a spread of cakes and finger food, including biscuits that were iced with the words ‘Baby Todd-Cleary’ and a yellow cake with white baby-themed icing.

The party spilled from the dining area to the backyard, which featured a large game of Jenga for guests to enjoy.

The couple have chosen to keep the gender of their baby a surprise, giving way to gender-neutral colours and signage at the celebration.

With both Declan and Sarah being massive foodies, their daily meals are an important part of the pregnancy.

‘We’re starting the mornings with lots of fresh fruit and yoghurt and muesli and then there’s lots of greens and fruit and veg and stuff throughout the day,’ said Declan.

‘So we’re cooking lots of stir fries, lots of healthy colourful food. As I say, you want to eat the rainbow,’ he added.

And with the festive season fast-approaching, the couple are planning to settle in for a ‘cosy Christmas’ in Melbourne as they await their new addition in the new year.

The pair, along with Sarah’s 14-year-old son Phoenix, will be spending Christmas just the three of them, feasting on a festive dessert come December 25.

Declan has teamed up with Amazon Australia to create a world–first mash–up: the Amazon Hot Chriss Pud – a Hot Cross Bun x Christmas Pudding hybrid designed to get Aussies talking.

‘I’ve pulled on the controversy of the hot cross bun always showing up too early every year,’ he said as he gushed about the Amazon Hot Chriss Pud.

‘It’s essentially a hot cross bun pudding that belongs on every Christmas table.’

On Tuesday, Declan revealed the surprising way he found out his girlfriend was pregnant.

‘I just remember her telling me on the phone that she can’t fit into one of her dresses and she thinks she’s pregnant,’ the Australian chef told Daily Mail.

‘So I just raced to the pharmacy and bought one of the tests.

‘She did the test and it came back positive and we were like, “Holy. How exciting. Let’s go for it.”‘

He went on to say that he’s always wanted to be a dad ‘for as long as I can remember.’

‘You always wait for the right time in your life and the right person to come into it.

‘I couldn’t ask for a better partner to do it with than Sarah,’ he gushed.

The dad–to–be added: ‘More people like us need to be having kids. They’re gonna be so loved. They’re gonna be coming into a house full of so much love and good food.’
