During an Instagram Q&A with her followers, first-time mum Fleur was asked about how “mummy life” was going.

In response, the It Takes Two host shared a smiley selfie of herself outdoors while holding Nova.

She wrote: “It’s going well, thanks! Up and down days. Some days are so tough and challenging and others are more enjoyable.”

Fleur continued: “But ALL of it worth it. Nova is doing well. Feeding well and getting bigger by the day x.”

When asked about labour, the former X Factor star admitted that it “was by far the toughest thing I’ve done so far!”

Fleur explained she “managed to cope” with “hypnobirthing techniques and gas and air,” adding, “it was a very empowering experience!”

“So thankful to the amazing midwives who were by my side, my birthing partners (my auntie Tina and my Husband @marcel__robin) and all of our family who have been helping out and showering us with love. It really does take a village! So grateful to God for this blessing,” Fleur continued.
