After having trouble conceiving, Scarlett Moffatt has disclosed that she underwent “11 pregnancy tests” before thinking she was expecting her second child.
After experiencing a devastating loss while “quite far along,” the 35-year-old I’m A Celebrity star worried she would never have another child.
Already proud parents of son Jude, Scarlett and fiancé Scott Dobinson are getting ready to welcome a boy into the world.
She told The Sun, “It felt so overwhelming.” We are genuinely ecstatic, especially for Jude, as I never imagined that we would be able to offer him a younger sibling. I’m ecstatic that we get to.
During her time on I’m A Celebrity, Scarlett confided in former pop diva Sinitta about her infertility issues and disclosed that she had experienced a miscarriage.
“After Jude, we tried again and got quite far along and miscarried, and it was just…,” she stated. When Scott’s parents took Jude away for the day, I recall how terrible it was for Scott and me to just lie in bed and cry.
After experiencing infertility, Scarlett Moffatt disclosed that she underwent “11 pregnancy tests” before thinking she was expecting her second child.
“We were just like, “Imagine them running down the stairs at Christmas together,” so Scarlett and fiancé Scott Dobinson, who are already proud parents of son Jude, are getting ready to welcome a newborn boy together. You’re lamenting a life you envisioned. Scott and I didn’t even exchange glances during it. We simply gripped each other and held hands on the couch. “It was really beautiful,” she remarked.
With one in four pregnancies in the UK ending in miscarriage, it is a quiet grief that affects thousands of women. As a result, many women have extreme anxiety with subsequent pregnancies.
And although Scarlett took nearly two years off from work following the birth of her son Jude in 2023, she has disclosed that things will be a little different this time.
According to data from the Office for National Statistics, the number of stay-at-home fathers in the UK has increased by 30% over the last ten years, and her spouse Scott has made the decision to take a career sabbatical from his work as a police officer.
The TV star, who believes she is “born to be a boy mum,” joyfully said that she was hoping for another son.
She recently stated to The Mirror:My family and friends were fully aware of my desire for another son. Of course, having a girl would have been fantastic—a healthy child is all that matters—but I wanted a boy to give Jude a brother.
I’m just overjoyed for him. He now has a life partner.
Scarlett announced the good news in April when she posted a sweet picture of the three of them together on her Instagram Stories, holding her expanding belly while wearing a chic, patterned co-ord.
In addition, Scarlett ran a poll asking her followers to vote on whether they believed the baby was a girl or a boy based on how her bump was positioned and how much she craved cheese during her pregnancy.
“My bump is very high this time, and I started showing early from around 14 weeks,” she added. Grated cheese, cheese toasties, and cheese scones—did I mention cheese?—have been my cravings.
The I’m A Celebrity actress openly acknowledged that her first trimester had not been easy while expressing gratitude to her fans for their compliments on how wonderful she was looking.
Scarlett called it “hell” and shared a selfie of herself in bed looking a little worse for wear while explaining that she has struggled with several common pregnant side symptoms.
After experiencing a devastating miscarriage while “quite far along,” the I’m A Celebrity star feared she would never have another child. “And for those lovely ones saying I’m glowing, let me tell you the first trimester was HELL lol,” she wrote. “I was driving to jobs and having mini sicks then filming, getting hot and cold flushes and migraines.” I’m finally taking compliments, hehe. Thank you.
Along with Scott and son Jude, the TV personality posted a touching video of herself holding up the ultrasound photo with excitement on Instagram to announce her pregnancy.
She exclaimed, “We honestly can’t believe we’re writing this,” in the post. After all of this, we feel incredibly fortunate to be able to report that our family is expanding.Jude was given to us by a small miracle, and he will soon grow up to be a big brother. If there’s one thing we can be positive of, it’s that he will be the most incredible big brother.
“We are incredibly appreciative, thrilled, and still a little taken aback. We never imagined that our hearts could be so full.
Before giving birth to Jude in June 2023, the former Gogglebox star talked candidly about her difficult four-year infertility ordeal.
