Just weeks before her twin daughters’ arrival, Caterina gushed over how ‘ready’ she was to welcome her two babies into the world.

Her Wiggles family also held her a sweet baby shower before she headed off on maternity leave at the end of May.
She shared an array of photographs from the occasion and thanked her colleagues for throwing her the thoughtful party on her last day at work.
She was joined for the party by her fellow Wiggles Tsehay Hawkins, John Pearce and longtime member Anthony Field, as well as members of the production crew.
Caterina’s IVF journey wasn’t straightforward as she recently opened up about her heartbreaking miscarriage before she got pregnant with her ‘miracle’ babies.
She froze her eggs in her 30s and later created two embryos with her chosen sperm donor but devastatingly suffered a miscarriage from the first embryo transfer.

‘It was certainly a shock to find out I had miscarried,’ she told maternity brand The Inarra.
‘I spoke to lots of women about it and was surprised to find out how common it is, I think talking about it has helped me through the healing process.’
Caterina went on to have a second embryo transfer and was given the happy news that she was pregnant with twins.
She then publicly shared her pregnancy news in February live on The Wiggles as she held up two Red Wiggle babygrows in a sweet announcement.
‘Hey, everyone. I’ve got some exciting news to share with you all. I’m pregnant with twin girls!’ she gushed at the time.
‘Becoming a mother has always been a dream of mine. I feel overwhelmingly blessed to share that I am expecting two beautiful little miracles.
‘This journey has been challenging, but filled with so much love and support. I am immensely grateful for the incredible team at my fertility clinic and the technology that has made this possible.’
Caterina is a well-known face on The Wiggles, having first featured as a regular dancer in recordings before officially becoming Red Wiggle in 2022.
