THE REAL DEAL: ‘THERE'S NOTHING SEXIER THAN SEEING SOMEONE YOU LOVE CHANGE A NAPPY'
We’ve always loved Ashley James for keeping it real, but since becoming a mum, the 33-year-old has taken things up a notch. From sharing pictures of her postpartum figure to breastfeeding selfies, there is nothing off limits for the DJ and presenter. And when we catch up with Ashley to talk about her supporting Elvie’s new #TheRealFeed campaign, which encourages mums to share the realities of motherhood, she admits she’s “very on brand”.

“My boobs have leaked all over my T-shirt, I’ve got sick on my shoulder and he’s just weed on me,” she laughs, as she talks about her nine-week-old son Alfie Rivers, who she shares with her boyfriend Tom Andrews. “This is the reality!”

Here, the former Made In Chelsea star tells OK! about sticking it to the breastfeeding trolls, and how being a mum has made her relationship with Tom even better…

Hi Ashley! How’s life as a new mum?

Even the fact that I’m a mum is mad because I’d always said I didn’t think I wanted children. It’s crazy trying to get used to a new identity as a mum, but it’s the best thing. It feels like a miracle. I feel like you hear so much negativity around how your relationship suffers when you have children but I’ve found the opposite. It’s so nice to see Tommy as a dad. I feel like there’s nothing sexier than seeing someone you love changing a nappy. Two years ago I was single and said I’d never want to live with a partner and have a baby, and now here I am!
