It comes just months after the mum-of-one was rushed to hospital after suffering a pulmonary embolism, a problem when arteries in the lungs become blocked with blood clots.

Sharing the scary experience on her Instagram page back in February, Chloe wrote, ‘Hey guys! So it’s been another crazy week in the Goodman/Hall household as many of you know I was back at my second home the #nhs 😂with #pulmonaryembolism I was up all night coughing and my partner noticed at 5am I was coughing up quite bad blood clots (I never turn the lights on when I go to the bathroom)’.

The NHS have been fantastic with everything from my #incompetentcervix to having a blood clot in my right lung,’ she continued. ‘They were super speedy and efficient and we managed to break what was left of it down with blood thinning injections and the next day my radiation scans showed both my lungs had then cleared.’

It’s common in pregnancy especially in the winter months with 50% of pregnant women getting the condition, so to all my lovely mummy to be’s keep an eye on this as I didn’t have a clue!

'Me and my little princess are now happy and healthy again 💜(hopefully it lasts the remainder of my pregnancy) #babyhall.’

Big congratulations to Chloe and Grant on their exciting news!
