‘My due date is only a week away but I had always secretly thought how weird it would be if I gave birth on the exact day. But I’m now glad that wasn’t the case as they both deserve their special day.’

An ectopic pregnancy is when a fertilised egg implants itself outside of the womb, usually in one of the fallopian tubes.

The fallopian tubes are the tubes connecting the ovaries to the womb. If an egg gets stuck in them, it won’t develop into a baby and your health may be at risk if the pregnancy continues.

Unfortunately, it’s not possible to save the pregnancy. It usually has to be removed using medicine or an operation.

She added: ‘I lost my little Twix [dog] a month before I found out I was pregnant which is ironic in itself because Twix hated babies and children and I always said I would never be able to have a child with Twixxy being my number 1 baby as it just wouldn’t work.

‘Fast forward a few months I then lost my wee Nan. This too is ironic because the reason I got Twix was that he was my grandads dying wish for me. 

‘Expect he was supposed to be a white Siberian cat. Not a stray dog from Battersea…but that’s another story.

‘Long story short- I always felt my grandads presence in Twix. My Nan and Twix had this incredible bond and I don’t know why but I just alwayssss knew that they would cross over at the same time.

‘Anyway to cut to the point I’ve never been hugely into spirituality but I do feel like this has all been linked together and to top it off we are calling our son after my Grandad which Cam & I decided way before my nans death’, she continued 

‘It’s crazy how our mind and body recovers so quickly from trauma when it’s replaced with love and hope’, she added 

‘And would you believe it – as my Nan got sicker with Dementia and Twix got older neither of them were giving up until eventually it was only a few months apart when they both died.

In June 2022 Emily revealed she suffered an ectopic pregnancy, after finding out she was pregnant a few weeks before.

She detailed the tragic news in a lengthy post to Instagram, telling followers that she ‘collapsed in pain’ and was rushed to hospital.

Emily detailed that she was ‘extremely emotional’ after the surgery and suffered a panic attack, adding that despite the physical pain, ‘mentally it was even harder.’

The television personality explained that despite the ‘shock’ pregnancy she was ‘quite excited’ before being admitted to A&E with stomach pain.

Alongside a photo for her hospital bed, Emily penned: ‘So a few weeks ago I discovered I was pregnant. Although it was a shock it was something I was also quite excited about.

In June 2022 Emily revealed she suffered an ectopic pregnancy, after finding out she was pregnant a few weeks before 

‘However on Tuesday. I collapsed whilst being at the shops. I cannot even describe to you the pain- it felt like my whole stomach was collapsing and was quickly rushed to hospital. I waited in A&E until 3pm the next day, when I finally got my scan.’

She continued: ‘As I laid on the table squeezing Cams hand the 2 nurses were so silent. I asked if everything is ok and she replied ‘I’m just going to get my colleague for a second opinion’ as the 3 nurses gathered round it was then they confirmed I had something called an ectopic pregnancy.

‘For those who haven’t heard of this (like me) it’s basically where the fetus gets stuck and grows in your Fallopian tube which is fatal and if I had left it much longer my Fallopian tube would of burst.

‘It’s one of those things you just think will never happen to you. I was just so scared. Not only was I about to lose my baby but I was about to have my Fallopian tube removed with the potential of my ovary too.

‘All I wanted to do was speak to my mum and I’m pretty sure I scared all the poor women in that waiting room with my crying.’
