Chloe 'MUM AND DAD WERE QUITE UPSET

Chloe Madeley, 35, is the first to admit that she’s extremely close to her father, GMB star Richard Madeley, 66. However, her bond with mum Judy Finnigan, 74, has strengthened beyond recognition.

The fitness star welcomed baby daughter Bodhi back in August with husband James Haskell, 37. In recent months, Bodhi has been unwell, with Chloe rushing her to hospital twice. Here, the star gives us an update on Bodhi’s health, her relationship with Richard and Judy, and how she’s coped with being a first-time mum.

Hi Chloe, how’s life with Bodhi? 
We’ve just started sleep training, so she’s now sleeping 10 hours through the night. She hit sleep regression in month four and she never came out of it again. By month five, I was hanging on by a thread. But now she’s sleeping, I’m sleeping, and everything’s great.

How have you changed since becoming a mother?
I feel like I’m a completely different human being. James doesn’t at all, which is interesting. It shows that the maternal bond is a very different thing to a paternal bond – that’s not minimising the latter. I didn’t understand the conflicting sentence of ‘It’s the hardest thing you’ll ever do but it’s the best thing you’ll ever do’ until now!
