“[Laura] did go in for her first scan at 12 weeks which I wasn’t allowed to attend.

Nick shot to fame on the first ever series of Big Brother 20 years ago in 2000 – which he went on to win.
At the time, his wife Laura was still at school and was not a fan of Nicholas Bateman aka Nasty Nick.
However, in real life, Nasty Nick and Craig are good friends.

During a holiday to Australia three years back, Craig introduced his then fiancee Laura to his former Big Brother housemate.
“Nick lives in Sydney now,” he explained. “Laura and I had a very memorable holiday there.
“I got down on one knee and proposed to her on top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and then the next day, we went for dinner with Nasty Nick.”
He continued: “I said to her, please put all of these impressions you’ve got out of your mind.
“Forget what you’ve seen on TV or read in the paper. Just treat him as one of my friends.
