New mum Jorgie Porter has shared about her mishap-filled trip to get her baby son Forest his first passport. The 35-year-old actress from Eccles posted a video from the car as she and fiance Ollie Piotrowski were en-route to get the travel document for their boy, who they welcomed into the world in November.
Jorgie has been updating her followers with her down-to-earth accounts. In her latest post on her Instagram Stories she explained that she and Ollie had experienced blunders on their mission to get the passport.
"We're en route to get Forrest's passport," she explained. "So far we filled out the form wrong, we've forgotten his birth certificate and we took ages trying to find our passport photos.

"We also had to drop the dog off, drop another kid off at school and try and get there in time. I don't know how this is going to go, honestly we're just those people."
Later Jorgie shared an adorable photo of her man cradling their bundle of joy as she praised him. "I could never imagine I’d find a man who gets kids ready in the mornings and let’s me lie in!!" she said. "Maybe it’s because he knows I’m a awful morning person it’s just not worth it."
She wrote: "I’m so lucky and obsessed and totally in love with this man!!! And so truly happy everything we’ve been through has made us stronger and more in love!! My man @olliepiotrowski forever and ever amen … also to the new love of my life the lil man forest xx"
The star, who plays Theresa McQueen in the Channel Four soap, last week dazzled as she returned to work saying "wish me luck." She didn't say what she was working on but shared a short video clip on Instagram of herself walking through Manchester city centre with a film crew.
Jorgie captioned the clip: "Work work work" and exclaimed: "I'm back ..." and she added with a nervous emoji: "Wish me luck!" Later she shared more details as she revealed Forest had joined her on her first project after giving birth, and said he had been a "dream."
"So I’ve been a little quieter this week because I’m back at it," she wrote with snaps of her breasfeeding her son in a store during an "emergency pit stop feed" as a "working mama."
"First project since the little man made his arrival. Not gunna lie, I was a little worried before I started this, wondering if this was the right time, but honestly I’ve loved it!
"Lucky enough to be able to bring Forest along for the ride (with help obvs ) and he’s been a dreammmmmmm. Now for an emergency pit stop feed before we head home #firsttimemum #workingmama."
She recently exclaimed triumphantly: "Yesterday I survived a solo shopping trip with Forest by myself!!!"
She added "I think I need to start celebrating the little wins, so felt this moment needed a place on the grid. It may not sound a lot to most (although mums I’m sure you get me) but seriously leaving the house is a military operation. It’s like you’re leaving to go on holiday for 2 weeks or is that just me. Change bag, nappies, wipes, cream, change of clothes, more nappies more wipes… you get the jist."
Last month she shared from her date night with her fiance and their son at Manchester's swanky The Ivy restaurant, but Jorgie posted a very different look from a shopping trip with Forest a couple of days later. The former I'm a Celebrity star provided a "dose" of reality on her Instagram - a picture of the new mum with her "hangry" baby after a "poonami explosion" that ended up all over her.
She joked as she Instagrammed a snap of herself looking up from a chair as she fed baby Forest, with most of the mess covered over with a poo emoji. "Thinking my page was looking a little too perfect so here’s a bit of insta reality," she said with a laughing emoji.
"This is me praying to the gods for a way to get out of the toilet cubicle in one piece!" she said. "Hangry hangry baby and a poonami explosion all over me, yes all over me!"
She added: "I had to call for reinforcements or I would still be sat there now." And she pleaded: "Parents tell me this has happened to you too??" And Jorgie received a raft of supportive messages and praise for speaking out.
