It's been a busy year for reality star Ferne McCann. She welcomed her second child into the world last summer and the former TOWIE regular has been juggling parenthood, her career and becoming a blended family with fiancé, Lorri Haines (who has son Noah from a previous relationship), all of which has been explored in her reality show, My Family And Me.
But as she sits down for an exclusive chat with new at the launch of her podcast with baby brand Mum & You, Ferne seems to be taking it all in her stride. "I'm feeling more confident as a mum this time around," says Ferne, who is joined by her 15-month-old daughter, Finty. As we chat about her decision to step away from her reality show after six years, Ferne, 34, tears up a little. But she also says she "can't wait" for the next chapter, which involves getting her skates on for the upcoming series of Dancing On Ice.
Here, she explains how having a child has brought her and Lorri, 33, closer - and how excited she feels about hitting the ice rink.
Hi, Ferne! You've decided to stop filming your reality show-how are you feeling about that decision?
