She continued to explain: "I know I can’t control it, but my midwife was like: 'If you want a chance of getting to those days, calm the hell down and don’t do anything silly'... so I’ve been trying to rest and I made it to today, which I’m so excited about."
The day that the TV and social media star wanted to get to before giving birth was the day of the launch her new clothing collection with In The Style.
