Pregnant Amy Childs forced to lay on the ground after fearing she was going to pass out

Amy Childs has recalled lying on the ground outside a restaurant after feeling like she was "going to pass out" during her pregnancy.

The reality TV star, 32, is expecting twins with her partner Billy Delbosq, 38. She has been sharing updates about the pregnancy since announcing the news back in October.

This has included discussing being "anxious". Amy – who already has kids Polly, five, and Richie, four, from previous relationships – said she was concerned after feeling faint recently.

She spoke about the experience in her latest column for OK! magazine, recalling that she "took a really funny turn" whilst out at a restaurant in Essex with some of her family.

She said: "I've never fainted in my life, but this felt like I was going to pass out. I don't know whether the restaurant was too hot or [maybe] I hadn't had enough water that day".

Amy said she felt like she "needed" to leave the restaurant. She continued: "[I] went outside to get some fresh air and then laid down on the freezing floor for about 10 minutes!"

She said that her mother, Julie Childs, came out to check on her and daughter Polly was "really concerned too". Amy commented: "She's never seen me like that before."

She added that her blood pressure was "fine" at a midwife appointment the following day. Amy said it's suspected that there may have been some "extreme movement" from one of the babies which "took away [her] energy".

Amy said that she was advised to "get some rest" and teased that she would adhere to such. She added that "luckily" work opportunities slow down at the time of year.
