THE NEXT CHAPTER: ‘WE'VE SAID GOODBYE TO THE BABY STAGE – WE'RE COMING OUT THE OTHER SIDE!'

QUEEN OF THE CASTLE GIOVANNA FLETCHER ON HOMESCHOOLING THE SECRET TO A HAPPY MARRIAGE AND WHY A FOURTH CHILD IS NOT ON THE CARDS

- EMILY WHITWAM

Since winning the hearts of the nation along with the I’m A Celebrity crown last year, Giovanna Fletcher has been busy getting back to what she does best – being a mum.

The author has left memories of the ITV reality show’s Welsh castle behind to return her focus to her beloved boys – McFly pop star hubby Tom Fletcher, 35, and their sons Buzz, seven, Buddy, five, and Max, who’s two.

But ever the businesswoman, Gi can’t resist taking time out from family life to pose in our exclusive shoot to celebrate her upcoming Happy Mum Happy Baby virtual event, based on her hugely successful podcast of the same name.

We catch up with the 36-year-old over the phone after the shoot – and we’re delighted to report that she is just as much the ray of sunshine she proved herself to be on I’m A Celebrity.

“It’s so nice to feel a little glamorous after being in loungewear for so long!” laughs Gi. “I feel like every day out at the moment is special.”

And now that the boys are back in school, Gi has big plans. She interviewed the Duchess of Cambridge about motherhood on her podcast and now has her sights set on former First Lady of the US, Michelle Obama – her dream guest.

“I’d love to know what it was like to bring up girls in the White House,” she beams.
