Christine said on Loose Women she had found her second pregnancy in lockdown “isolating” compared to first time around as her family could not spend more time with her.
She said: “I have got two very excited parents back in Northern Ireland who cannot wait. It’s been very weird if I am being honest, as we’re very close.
“Christmas was meant to be that tiny bit of light at the end of the year and sadly it didn’t happen, so mum and dad haven’t touched the bump, and haven’t seen it in the flesh. Thank goodness for Skype.”
