Emily proudly announced the happy news on Instagram at the beginning of January, with a snap of her blossoming bump, saying she was 'over the moon'.
She didn't confirm Alistair's identity in the post, however her publicist later confirmed the relationship and they have reportedly set up home together as they prepare for the baby's arrival.
Emily previously told how important her cousins have been in her life, calling them 'the best friends I ever had'.
Her family, including mother Kate Robbins who calls Alistair her 'nephew', are believed to be thrilled the comedy actress is becoming a mum for the first time and endorse her romance with the nuclear scientist, who is not a blood relative.
And writing in her 2019 autobiography Are We There Yet?, Emily gave clues as to why she's ended up in a relationship with Alistair because her cousins 'understand each other on a deep level.'
She says: 'Cousins are the best invention since the Game Boy. They are basically 50 per cent sibling, 50 per cent mate. You look the same but different...
'You understand each other on a deep, deep, level and you have a smidgen more social etiquette towards them than your brother or sister...
'It makes me sad for my friends who don't have that relationship with their cousins, because mine were the best friends I ever had. They are still my best friends to this day.'

Last week it was reported Emily's BBC Adventure show Trailblazers had been axed after one season due to her and co-host Mel B's clash during filming.
The 2022 series, which was also presented by Ruby Wax, followed the trio as they retraced the steps of Victorian explorer Isabella Bird through the Rocky Mountains.
The Mirror reports that Mel, 48, and Emily had a 'frosty' relationship which led to a 'tense' argument during filming in the US.
A source told the publication: 'Once on set, their personalities definitely clashed and there was one row that was witnessed by several crew members. There was no way back from that at the time.'
Branding filming incredibly difficult as the trio undertook tough physical challenges on the 800 mile trek.
While a second claimed the BBC had hoped to recreate the onscreen chemistry of ITV's Gordon Ramsay, Gino D'Acampo and Fred Sirieix.

Saying: 'Because Mel and Emily really did not get on, it was tough drumming up that natural chemistry. There were high hopes for the show but it won't be coming back.'
However the pair seemed to have put their difficulties behind them, with the first source adding: 'It was a bit of a pressure cooker environment but Mel and Emily have seen each other since and things were fine between them'.
A BBC Spokesperson said: 'Trailblazers has not been "axed". It was commissioned as a one off series following in the footsteps of Victorian explorer Isabella Bird across the Rocky Mountains'.
MailOnline has also approached Emily and Mel B's reps for comment.
