Congratulations are in order for Lydia Bright who has announced she's pregnant with her first child.
The TOWIE star confirmed the exciting news and admitted she's found it 'hard' not telling anyone.
'I've done so much travelling, I've done all my partying holidays, I'm where I want to be in terms of my life, financially and career-wise. It just feels like the right time for it all to happen for me', she told Hello magazine.
The mum-to-be also heartbreakingly announced that she's split from the father of her child Lee Cronin.
'It's not the ideal situation. I waited quite a long time to try for a baby, waited until I thought it was perfect. I've always wanted the fairytale. And it's obviously not worked out exactly how I wanted.'
Lydia admitted that she wouldn't rule out a reunion with her ex-boyfriend but hinted she's tried to make things work.
'I'm not closing the door on it completely, but I feel like I just keep getting knocked back. I can't beg somebody to be with me, and I can't beg somebody to love me.'
Lydia and Lee first met in Ibiza in 2017, fast forward a year and they revealed they were buying a house together.
They split earlier this year in January but then reunited. Despite breaking up they are set to welcome their first child together in February next year.
