“I can't lie, I'm definitely doing my make-up a lot more because I feel really, really c****y in myself. Really c****y, so I feel like I'm just trying to make a bit more of an effort, just to make myself feel a bit awake, bit more alive," Radford admitted.

The 29-year-old conceded: “It is tiring and it is draining being pregnant."

"She's just started to have really, really big feelings, a lot of meltdowns, tantrums," Radford shared, noting that while this behaviour is normal, it's particularly challenging.

"She is obviously needing a lot of our time and attention to help her deal with these big feelings," the 29-year-old explained, her voice thick with emotion.

Radford revealed that the emotional toll of balancing her toddler's needs with her pregnancy has left Chloe feeling overwhelmed.

"I just feel like crying all the time, just from feeling so guilty that she obviously just needs her mummy and daddy a lot at the minute," she confessed.

"It's making me feel really, really emotional," she admitted, though remaining hopeful about the transition period.

"I have absolutely no doubt about it that she is going to be an incredible big sister," Radford added.
