Amy Childs showed off her baby bump as she posed in a sports bra and leggings on Sunday – admitting it has been ‘one of the scariest’ times of her pregnancy so far.
The Only Way Is Essex star, 32, is preparing to welcome twins with her boyfriend Billy Delbosq and is closely approaching her due date, now at 36 weeks along.
She looked radiant in casual attire, donning a grey sports bra and leggings as she exposed her bare bump.
Amy paired the low-key ensemble with glam make-up and styled her dark dresses with a light curl to maintain a glamorous look as she posed for a mirror selfie.
The reality star has been open about the fact she is booked in for a C-section – and shared her worries with fans as her other two children, Polly and Ritchie, were born naturally.

Candid: The TOWIE star, 32, said it has been ‘one of the scariest and worrying’ times of her pregnancy so far as she is booked in for a C-section
Penning a long caption alongside her post, she wrote: ‘So I’m 36 weeks now and the due date for the twins is just around the corner!!! It’s so close!!
‘This has actually been one of the scariest and worrying times of my pregnancy because I have booked in a c-section (so many of you have messaged me about my birth plan!!) but mums, I’ve never had one before and I’ve been so anxious…
‘Polly and Ritchie were both born vaginally so all I can think about what having a c-section will be like!! I know it’s ridiculous but I’ve been so scared…
‘I’m trying to be as calm as possible but I’ve read so many horror stories about c-sections online and it’s left me so worried…’
The TOWIE veteran and boyfriend Billy have been an item since October 2021, just two months after the mother-of-two split from her ex-boyfriend Tim following 14 months together.
Amy shares daughter Polly, five, with ex-boyfriend Bradley Wright and is also mum to son Ritchie Jr, two.
It comes after the star faced a hospital scare earlier this month as she thought she was going into early labour.
Writing for OK! Magazine, she explained that she had to call the hospital at 3.30am after suffering from severe stomach cramps.

She said: ‘A couple of nights ago, I couldn’t sleep at all. I got up around 1am, and my tummy was really cramping.’
‘I’ve had it before, it’s not like it’s my first baby, but I said to Bill that something felt different,’ she added.
She said that she called the hospital because she didn’t want to travel there in the early hours just to be told it was Braxton-Hicks, which are contractions that happen as the body prepares for labour.
Amy admitted that she didn’t have to go into the hospital but would have if the babies weren’t moving, saying she was worried the pain was a sign of early labour.
She said: ‘When I was getting the twinges, I thought, “Oh my god, are they coming now?”.
‘I was asking people on Instagram when they went into labour with twins, and a lot of people said around 35/36 weeks, and I’m 35 weeks on Monday.’
