Pregnant mum-of-four Danielle Lloyd is blissfully happy when we catch up with her. Following a recent gender reveal scan, the 37-year-old exclusively reveals in our gorgeous family shoot that she’s expecting the baby girl she has spent years longing for.
“I can’t really believe it,” she says, beaming. “I don’t think it will feel real until she arrives.”
Danielle had made no bones about wanting a sister for her boys Archie, 10, Harry, nine, and George, seven, who she shares with her ex Jamie O’Hara, and Ronnie, three, who she has with husband Michael O’Neill.
She was so determined, she and Michael were set to fly to Dubai this summer for gender selection – a procedure that is illegal in the UK – to ensure her dream came true. But then she found out that she was expecting.
And Danielle, now 19 weeks, believes it was fate that she conceived a girl naturally – because a fortune teller had said she would.
The star also reckons she “manifested” the daughter she had craved – who she says will finish off her brood. “I just think, that’s my family now,” she says. “It’s complete.”
As we chat with Danielle at her home in the West Midlands, she also opens up about having a miscarriage in 2019, her mental health struggles over the past year, supporting Harry after he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia, and her “crazy” home life…
Congratulations, Danielle. You must be so pleased you’re having a girl!
I am. I’m over the moon. I can’t really believe it, to be honest. I don’t think it will feel real until she arrives.
