She opened up about how she had frozen some of her eggs in 2018. She explained: “Having my scan was just the most amazing thing. It’s so magical, the wonder of seeing this little life that’s growing inside you.”
In May, Zoe was open about feeling nervous about giving birth when she was interviewed by HELLO! magazine.
She said: “I’m feeling a bit apprehensive about the birth, but also there’s a small side of me that’s looking forward to it and I can’t wait to meet the baby.”
She explained how she “came into this pregnancy with a doctor’s mindset”.

“But we’ve got a doula who’s attended many births and she is helping me readdress what my ideas are around everything.
“Thinking about a home birth is a massive shift for me, although I’m still weighing up all my options.”
