Baking influencer Sally Özcan announces third pregnancy on Instagram

Özcan has stated that she has been separated from her husband for more than two years and that the father of her third child is her new partner. On her social media channels, she only shows her partner from behind. In a previous YouTube video she described him as down-to-earth, childless and well employed, saying: "Er sei bodenständig, er habe keine Kinder und einen sehr guten Job." She has also shared that her partner is one year younger than her, is taller than her, has a large tattoo on his back and short wavy dark blonde hair.

Background: the new partner

The influencer's YouTube channel Sallys Welt has grown to approximately 2.2 million followers over the years, making her one of Germany's most-watched baking personalities online. Her content focuses on recipes, baking tutorials and family-friendly cooking projects.

The time spans since Özcan's previous pregnancies, as referenced in the announcement, are 16 years and 11 years, indicating a significant gap between the births of her two daughters and the upcoming arrival. The pregnancy was widely discussed by fans and media outlets covering German influencer culture.

Reaction from fans and media

Commentators covering the announcement have suggested the news is likely to surprise many of her followers, both because of the long gaps since her previous pregnancies and because she has previously spoken about raising her daughters largely on her own. The announcement was corroborated by two sources covering German lifestyle media.

The new pregnancy comes at a time when Özcan has continued to expand her brand beyond YouTube, with cookbooks, a product line and regular appearances on German television. The influencer has used her platform to talk openly about family, motherhood and entrepreneurship.
