Pregnant Gemma Atkinson praised for powerful gesture for daughter Mia as she proudly shows blooming bump in bikini

Pregnant actress and radio star Gemma Atkinson has been applauded after she shared an inspiring post from her family holiday. Hits Radio presenter Gemma had fun playing on the beach with her three-year-old daughter Mia while promoting body positivity.

The doting mum, who is expecting her second child with Strictly Come Dancing pro Gorka Marquez, told how she packed some beach trousers to wear after feeling swollen and bloated and saying she's never had as much cellulite in her life. She says four years older after her first pregnancy it has been harder on her body.

But former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale actress Gemma, 38, decided to ditch the trousers from day one of the holiday after thinking about the 'negative effect' it could have on Mia. The star, from Bury, has since been wearing her bikinis every day while making memories as a family.
