At the time, the star was balancing looking after a newborn with promoting her book, and opened up to HELLO! about how she was "embracing the chaos" and hoping that everyone liked the book.

It's safe to say, they certainly did! "It's nerve-wracking as I want everybody to like it as much as I do. So far the reaction has been nothing but positive," she said.

What's more, Dylan's oldest son Calvin has had a big role to play in his mom's books too.

She shared: "Calvin has been 'co-editor' throughout this whole process because every time we read the book I would always read it to him and he saw it when it was just on my computer on a word document.

"It was so fun when we had the final copy of the book and to see the artwork come out, then the coloured artwork and now the actual book.
