Gemma Atkinson shares countdown to maternity leave as she admits time with Gorka 'could go either way'

Gemma Atkinson has shared how her maternity leave is now just weeks away after recently telling fans why she hadn't asked for a due date for her second child. The Hits Radio host announced back in January that was was pregnant after it became "impossible" to hide her bump any longer.

Sharing her and her fiance Gorka Marquez's happy news, she penned alongside a string of black and white images showing off her blossoming belly on Instagram: "Our baby boy will be joining our family later this year. We feel so incredibly blessed and Grateful to be on this journey again. Mia is absolutely thrilled!"

The couple become first-time parents to their daughter Mia back in 2019. Gemma suffered a traumatic time in labour and previously said she thought she had ‘failed’ at childbirth. She needed an emergency C-section when doctors realised Mia's heart rate had dropped and Gemma almost died when she lost nearly a litre of blood after suffering a haemorrhage.
