Big Brother star Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace is 'starting to panic' she won't be able to have children.
The 43-year-old TV personality, who appeared on Big Brother in 2006, had several miscarriages and never froze her eggs.
She lost four babies - with one of them being stillborn - before doctors found out she had rhesus-negative blood.
"I’m really starting to panic that it’s just not going to happen for me," she revealed.
She said that her career took priority and, now, she's fully aware of how a woman's 'clock is always ticking'.
"I just have to hope and pray that I’ve not left it too late to have my miracle baby," she explained to The Sun.
Aisleyne said of her miscarriages: "It was heartbreaking because you’re left thinking, ‘What have I done wrong?'. I went through a lot of self-blame before they investigated what was happening."
The star has started weighing up all her options, which include using a sperm donor, fostering, adopting, or having a child with her gay best friend.
Aisleyne arrived on Big Brother on day 12 almost 16 years ago and became a pop culture royalty almost instantaneously.
She famously uttered the line "You better know yourself if you're talking about me, little girl!" during a row with the late Nikki Grahame.
The feisty housemate made it all the way to the final on Day 93 - finishing up in third place with 22% of the public vote, with Pete Bennett crowned champion.
In 2018, Aisleyne used her platform to raise awareness of a rare condition that impacts her chances of becoming a mother biologically.

The showbiz veteran had previously shared she tragically suffered three miscarriages and a stillborn in the past.
Her baby was stillborn when she was six-and-a-half months pregnant.
Doctors had confirmed she was suffering from rhesus negative - a rare blood disease that threatens her chances of carrying a baby full-term.
Speaking with The Sun at the time, the star admitted: "If I think about it too much I will literally go outside my house and grab the first bloke I can find to try and get pregnant."
Reflecting on delivering a baby who was stillborn when she was 23 years old, Aisleyne explained how the traumatic experience impacted her mental health and left her feeling suicidal.
She poignantly said: "It was heartbreaking. It made me go off the rails because I thought 'what is the point in life?'"
