Kate Silverton can’t quite believe that her little girl is already preparing for her move to senior school.
Flash back to almost 12 years ago, and the former BBC News presenter was unsure whether she and ex-Royal Marine husband Mike Heron would ever be able to conceive a child naturally.
The couple endured a gruelling IVF experience, which included several unsuccessful rounds of treatment, and which Kate has since admitted was often made harder by her high-pressure job. But their lives changed forever when in 2011, aged 40, she made the joyous discovery she was pregnant, and they welcomed their beautiful daughter Clemency Florence Rose that November.
