Pregnant Gemma Atkinson gave her devoted audience a lesson in the forthrightness of online networking.
Ex-Hollyoaks star, 38, is expecting her second child with Strictly Come Dancing veteran, 32-year-old Gorka Marquez, with whom she has a 3-year-old daughter named Mia.
The celebrity has always been open about her love of working out on social media, but she recently posted a message urging her Instagram fans to stop focusing so much on others’ perfectly filtered photos.
The photo’s caption stated, “Quick reminder that if I can hide a newborn, what else can folks hide using forms and lighting?”
Do not obsess about what other people have posted online. They’re all fake or made up.
Gemma and Gorka both keep their followers up to date with endearing details of their family life, such as their holiday plans and their baby’s first words.
In one of her latest posts confirming their exciting news, she wrote: ‘Impossible to hide my belly any longer. I’ve officially “popped.” Our baby boy will be joining our family later this year .
‘We feel so incredibly blessed and Grateful to be on this journey again. Mia is absolutely thrilled! Although we may need to do some negotiating on names, as so far she’s adamant he’s going to be called Barbie.’
Celebrities, fans and loved ones flocked to congratulate the happy couple on their bundle of joy, with Dancing On Ice judge Oti Mabuse penning: ‘Congratulations .’
TOWIE star Jess Wright also commented: ‘Congratulations ,’ while Crossfit athlete Elliot Simmonds added: ‘Can’t wait to meet the little guy and buy him his first Liverpool shirt .’
Gemma and Gorka welcomed first child Mia on July 4, 2019, with the dancer writing on social media at the time: ‘She’s incredible and she certainly made an entrance, giving us all quite a fright at times. @glouiseatkinson my absolute HERO!’
Meanwhile, earlier this month Gorka cleared up the speculation about his leaving the Strictly franchise by explaining why he wouldn’t be joining the tour.
‘After the Strictly season I always want to have some down time to spend quality time with Gem and Mia,’ the pro explained, suggesting that Gemma’s joyful announcement may have had a role in the choice.
