"Thank you for all your lovely messages," Nadine wrote. "She is not born yet. That is a baby shower balloon. We can't wait until she is. Loads of love! xx."
Nadine announced her pregnancy last summer, but did not immediately reveal who the father was. Then, in an exclusive interview with HELLO!, she confirmed that she was back together with her former fiancé Jason, and that he was the daddy.
"I think we forgot to tell everyone we were together," she said. "When I said I was pregnant I though, 'Why's everyone wondering who it is?' Then I remembered, 'Oh yes, that's right. I do stuff on TV and people are confused.' So this clears it up!"
