The past 12 months have been a whirlwind for former TOWIE star Jess Wright. Not only did she finally get to walk down the aisle to marry businessman William Lee-Kemp last summer, she also welcomed her first child, Presley, in May.
But it hasn’t all been smooth sailing for Jess, 36. The couple’s wedding was delayed several times due to Covid before they finally got their dream day in Mallorca last September, surrounded by friends and family.
And despite dreaming of motherhood for a very long time, Jess recently confessed that becoming a parent is a lot harder than she ever thought possible as she opened up about her postnatal depression.
Here, she tells new how she’s bouncing back after a rocky few months…
Hi Jess! Little Presley is gorgeous! How are you finding being a mum now?
It’s amazing. It’s just something you can’t put into words really. It’s an incredible, crazy and wonderful journey.
You recently spoke about your difficult start to motherhood. Do you still have tough days?
Sometimes, but my hormones are fine now. Originally they were all over the place and it was a crazy few weeks. But they subsided and thankfully I felt completely normal again. I hear from so many girls now and some of them are still suffering a few months on – or even a year later – so my heart goes out to them, because it’s not easy when you have a difficult birth.
Did you take anything to ease your hormones?
