With two young children, another on the way and a busy job as an NHS doctor, Emily Andre has a packed year ahead.
But the 34-year-old isn't taking her foot off the pedal any time soon and when new sits down for an exclusive chat with the mum, who's due to give birth in spring, she's keen to chat about her new children's mental health book, Healthy Mind, Happy You.
"It can get a little busy at times," Emily - who is known professionally as Dr Emily MacDonagh - laughs of her hectic schedule. "But we're getting there and things always work out."
Our catch-up also gives us the perfect opportunity to find out more about the dynamic between her own children Millie, 10, and Theo, seven, and step-children Princess, 16, and 18-year-old Junior, who she shares with singer husband Peter Andre, 50.
Here, Dr Emily opens up on the experiences that inspired her to put pen to paper, the strive to be the perfect parent and why having older siblings is a blessing....
Hi, Emily. You must be on the countdown to baby number three's arrival!
We're getting there. We're moving bedrooms around at the minute so there's a bit of shuffling going on. It suddenly feels like I don't have long left now and need to catch up on things, so there are parcels arriving every day. Also, I love my sleep and so does Pete, so fingers crossed it's another baby like Millie, she slept so well! But we'll work it out, we always do. We are so excited.
It sounds like a busy household. How do you make sure everyone feels heard and listened to?
