She's apparently already six months pregnant

Former Loose Women star Jamelia has announced she’s expecting her third child.

The Superstar singer is apparently six months pregnant, and is already mum to daughters Teja and Tiani.

Jamelia, 36, shared the exciting news on her Facebook account as she uploaded a photo of her cradling her growing bump.

The snap showed Jamlia in a dark outfit as she wrapped her hands around her bump.

She wrote: “When your Husband gives you the best wedding present EVER!! #GRATEFUL.”

Her followers rushed to congratulate the singer as one gushed: “Beautiful photo, congratulations!”

Another said: “Wow! Congrats.”

“Awww gorgeous, congratulations,” a third commented.

OK! Magazine reports that the soon-to-be mum-of-three told them that her latest pregnancy is different to her last one.

“I’m older this time, so it’s been a very different pregnancy to my last one,” she told the mag.

“It’s been very up and down and it’s really affected me. At one stage, my husband told me to get off Twitter because I get so passionate and so involved.”

As well as being a doting mum the star is also busy starring in a film about her life, writing a book and releasing new music next year.

This comes after she was reportedly dropped from ITV’s Loose Women.

Earlier this year Jamelia broke her silence about the ‘axe’.

“I haven’t been formally sacked by Loose Women, as other people have been in the past,” she told the Birmingham Mail.

“So I guess I technically still have a job with them. But I haven’t been on the show since those reports, so people will make of it what they will.”

“The show is going in a different direction at the moment and I don’t seem to be a part of that narrative,” she added.

It was reported that ITV bosses weren’t happy with controversial comments she made on the show about plus-sized women.

During a dicussion on the show back in 2015 Jamelia said: “I don’t believe stores should stock clothes below or above a certain weight.

“[Larger weight people] should be made to feel uncomfortable when they go in and can’t find a size. I do not think it’s right to facilitate people living an unhealthy lifestyle.”

A source said that bosses weren’t impressed with her remarks. They said at the time: “The show is often close to the bone but those comments were the final straw.

“Loose Women’s viewers come in all shapes and sizes and the producers don’t want them to be offended.”

Jamelia said on the matter: “I didn’t make it clear on the show that I was talking about extremes.

“I was talking about above size 20 and below size six.

“Knowing that I offended people really upset me. All I can do is apologise for that.

“I’m a real women with real opinions. I get paid to voice my opinions.”
