Strictly Come Dancing and Dragons' Den star Sara Davies opens up on pregnancy struggles

Dragons' Den star Sara Davies has revealed her struggles to get pregnant and how the stress resulted in weight gain.

The County Durham -born mum-of-two, who wowed fans on Strictly Come Dancing last year, has written a memoir, We Can All Make It, in which she charts her life. The book details her successes and her setbacks in the business world.
