Actor Gemma Atkinson has been the subject of wishful thinking after her toddler made an announcement on her behalf. The former Emmerdale and Hollyoaks star was then left having to explain she wasn't pregnant to her daughter after the tot made her declaration at her toddler club.
The Hits Radio presenter shares daughter Mia with her Strictly Come Dancing star fiance Gorka Marquez. The family of three recently enjoyed an emotional trip to Spain after dancer Gorka wasn't able to see his family for two years due to Covid. They jetted off to Bilbao in northern Spain where they made the most of the sunny weather and a reunion with Gorka's parents.
Gemma took to Instagram to share pictures and video clips of the trip, reported Manchester Evening News. The trio went bodyboarding while at the beach and Gemma posted a picture of herself in a black swimsuit posed with her bodyboard under her arm.

Upon arriving in Spain, Gemma shared a photo of three-year-old Mia heading to the beach, holding the hands of her grandparents, Gorka's mum and dad. "After 2 and a half years, we made it back to Spain," the mum-of-one shared with her followers alongside the beautiful photo as they headed towards the sand and sea.
But now they're back home, it appears Mia has misunderstood her doting mum's changing body. Speaking to her co-host Mike Toolan during their drivetime radio show, Gemma said: "Mia's told a lot of the teachers at nursery that I'm pregnant!" to which Mike replied: "What! You're pregnant? I thought it was just a bit of holiday weight."
Gemma, 37, laughed and replied: "It is holiday weight, I'm not!" As Mike quizzed her, he said: "You're not pregnant but Mia's telling people you're pregnant?" The star said: "She's told four of the staff at toddlers I'm pregnant." She continued to explain: "Gorka picked her up on Monday and when I got back from work he said to her, 'Tell mummy what you said today...' and she got a bit funny..."
The mum-of-one then explained how she found out that her little girl had got up in front of everyone and said: "I've got something to say... my mummy's got a baby in her tummy." Gemma then told how Mia has already decided it's a girl called Annabelle. Gemma had to tell her daughter she wasn't going to be a big sister just yet, much to her disbelief.
It turns out Mia came to the conclusion that her mum was expecting after seeing her rub her tummy. However, Gemma explained how she had a bit of a bug while on holiday, hence why she may have been touching her stomach. Mike told Gemma that Mia has a 'creative mind' to which she recalled how her mum said Mia may have a 'sixth sense.
