Pregnant Natasha Hamilton has opened up about how her kids reacted to the news that she was expecting another baby and how they felt when the discovered their unborn sibling’s gender. Atomic Kitten star Natasha, 40, announced in February that she was expecting another baby – her first with husband Charles Gay – and has since revealed that the happy couple are set to welcome a little girl later this year. In the wake of her happy news, Natasha spoke to OK! at Manchester's The Baby Show about her pregnancy and shared how her four kids reacted to her pregnancy.
The singer is mum to Josh, 20, Harry, 18, Alfie, 12, and eight year old Ella, whom she shares with previous partners. “I wanted to do a nice video of when we told the kids that we were having a baby. So the plan was I was going to be taking a picture of them saying ‘say cheese’ and then say ‘we’re having a baby!’ and when I said it Josh, my eldest, swore straight away, so I couldn’t post it on Instagram," Natasha told us.
“He said a swear word, but in a nice, surprised way.” She went on: “Ella cried and my other boys were like ‘what?!’. But the thing is, everyone knew we’d been trying for quite a while. Everyone was just happy [at the news].” While her sons were shocked at the time, over Christmas her kids had shared their hopes for another sibling.
“At Christmas, the boys wrote in our card: ‘Hopefully the new year brings another baby’. I thought that was really sweet,” recalled Natasha. Discussing their recent gender reveal, the boys wore blue in the hopes of having a little brother, while eight year old Ella wore pink.
“Ella was desperate to have a little sister. I was convinced it was a boy, but she was like, ‘No. It’s a girl’,” the mum-of-four said.
