‘It just feels like the right time for it all to happen for me.’
Lydia also confirmed that sadly she has split from long-term boyfriend Lee - and while she doesn’t feel that the pregnancy and break up coinciding is ‘ideal’, she seems to be remaining positive.
She explained: ‘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.
‘I know this baby will be the best thing that has ever happened to me.’
