Love Island fan-favourite Shaughna Phillips announced her pregnancy with her first child with partner Billy in October 2022, sharing her excitement at embarking on the adventure of parenthood.The 28 year old had come off the pill over the summer and fell pregnant just two months later, describing the moment she saw the positive test as an "out-of-body experience". Since then, she's been dishing out all the brutal realities of being a soon-to-be-mother, talking about everything from her baby being in breech to her predictions on her unborn child's gender.This week, Shaughna opens up on life since Billy's arrest, her baby shower plans and whether she'll take maternity leave following the birth of her bundle of joy. In her exclusive OK! column, Shaughna gives fans and mothers-to-be her first hand, unfiltered experience...
The show must go on After a challenging few weeks, obviously, the baby's father isn't around. But my main focus has always been just to prepare for the birth and try to be as calm as possible. I'm good at just saying, 'Right, the show must go on'.
Obviously, Billy's not around, but I don't want to say that I'm doing it on my own, because I'm absolutely not – my family's incredible. It's going to be different, but I don't want to say it's going to be bad. Aches and pains I have quite a bad back at the minute and am suffering from swollen legs, which is partially why I've been spending a lot more time in bed recently.
It's the same kind of pain I've been going through throughout my pregnancy, it comes and goes. My belly is really heavy when I hold it now. I realised that my body is compensating for it, which explains the sharp pain in my back.
