When new arrives at Danielle Lloyd’s stunning Birmingham home, the model and mum-of-five welcomes us in with open arms. And despite a sleepless night with her daughter Autumn, the 38-year-old is looking as glamorous as ever. “It’s all make-up,” she laughs. “My eyes feel so heavy. You should see the bags underneath!”
But even with lack of sleep it’s clear the star couldn’t be any more in love with her beautiful baby girl.
Danielle welcomed Autumn into the world in November, after being induced at 38 weeks – and just 16 weeks later she’s back in a bikini, telling us she feels “happy and confident”.
But despite how good she feels, behind the scenes hurtful trolls have left her emotional and angry.
“Whenever I pose in a bikini people say, ‘You’ve got five kids, put it away’,” she tells us.
“It’s upsetting as I worked hard throughout my pregnancy and after to be healthy and look after myself.”
As well as Autumn, Danielle is mum to son Ronnie, four, with her property developer hubby Michael O’Neill, and has Archie, 11, Harry, 10, and George, eight, from a previous marriage.
Here, Danielle reveals how Michael has supported her throughout her trolling ordeal, why the comments took her back to a dark time in her life, and why she’s done with surgery and having more babies.
Hi Danielle! You’re looking amazing. How are you feeling?
