Speaking on the Loose Women panel Kelsey said she speaks to Tom’s parents every weekend via FaceTime. “Noreen is just happy for me. She even messaged me the other day and asked if they’d find out what I’m having. I said I still don’t know,” she said. She added that Tom’s mum Noreed told her: “As long as you and the baby are healthy and happy that’s all that matters.”
Asked how her boyfriend Will is feeling about the whole pregnancy, Kelsey said: “I feel like he’s skipped a stage. He’s had to come in and have the 4/5 year old and now he’s going to have a newborn.”

“We’re taking every moment and lapping it up because life has been so tough for us. Life can change like that. I went through hell and back, and now I’m trying to find the joys through life.”

Revealing her third pregnancy in an interview with The Mirror, Kelsey shared: “Tom and I always said we wanted four – but life had other plans. So yes, this is amazing but also bittersweet.
“The joys of finding out I’m pregnant and moving forward with my life, while thinking, “My life could have been so different.” I’ve felt every emotion under the sun. I’m still getting my head around it but I’m so excited.”
