Billie Shepherd has opened up about her latest pregnancy and shown off her blossoming baby bump as part of a glamorous new photoshoot recently.
The reality TV star, 32, is expecting a third child with her husband Greg Shepherd, who will join their brood which already includes daughter Nelly, eight, and son Arthur, five.
The Only Way is Essex alum has discussed the pregnancy - including her plans for the birth - in a new interview for OK! magazine, which was accompanied by a photoshoot.
She modelled a number of glamorous outfits as she showcased her blossoming bump for the outlet, including posing in a lacy black gown whilst stood by the edge of a pool.
Billie - who stars alongside her husband Greg and their children in the Family Diaries - was photographed in the water wearing a frilly purple dress and also modelled a white gown.
The photoshoot was accompanied by an interview in which she opened up about her plans for the pregnancy, admitting that she's "undecided" over having a home birth.
Although her younger sister Sam Faiers, 31, has welcomed two children with home births, Billie doesn't have the same experience and might not be as "relaxed" as her sister.

She commented: "The idea is lovely, and I've seen her have two home births and they've both been amazing, and I love the idea of getting into your own bed after with the baby".
Billie however explained: "I've got that worry in the back of my head [though]. Samantha was 100% confident with her home birth, and I don't know if I've got that".
The Mummy Diaries alum revealed in the interview that she will use self-hypnosis techniques for the birth, saying: "I'm going to do hypnobirthing this time, which I’ve never done."
The reality TV star - who is five and a half months pregnant - said in the interview that she "just had a feeling" she was pregnant prior to confirming the news by doing a test at home.
Billie said her boobs had been swollen and she "felt a bit sicky," with her and husband Greg both "so excited" when they discovered that she was expecting their third child.
She explained that she shared the news with her children Nelly and Arthur through a letter, which had been written from the point-of-view of the new arrival into the family.
